The story

Festival de Nimes in Nîmes

Festival de Nimes stages a major summer concert series inside the Arenes de Nimes, a first-century Roman amphitheatre, running roughly mid-June through late July with national and international touring artists across pop, rock, electro and hard rock. It is entirely distinct from the separately organized Feria de Nimes, which uses the same arena for springtime and autumn bullfighting and feria street festivities rather than concerts.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Festival de Nimes' defining feature is its historic venue used purely for modern concerts: the Arenes de Nimes, among the best-preserved Roman amphitheatres in the world, hosts major touring artists within ancient stone tiers and arched galleries, giving performances a specifically archaeological backdrop distinct from any purpose-built arena

02

The mystery stays covered

Its clear separation from the same venue's Feria de Nimes bullfighting events, held at different times of year for an entirely different purpose and audience, means visitors must be precise about which event they intend to attend despite the shared arena and city name
