CHANCE FESTIVAL
The CHANCE Festival is a true affair of the heart: a festival that combines contemporary pop music with sustainability and diversity in a Franco-German context for the fifth time. The innovative and avant-garde CHANCE Festival is a fair and intergenerational project that is committed to sustainable and solidary development as well as diversity - new for Germany and France in its structure and intention. We want to bring current French-language pop music to the stage, by artists who care about social issues - and who are particularly committed to sustainability and diversity. In addition to concerts, there will be workshops, panels and information stands as well as good food from France and Germany. The Franco-German Civic Fund supports the CHANCE Festival and all those who are actively committed to a strong European civil society. Franco-German projects that bring us closer together. Encounters across generations and borders.
