Festival de Saint-Paul de Vence 2026 : fifteen years of music, emotions and discoveries

From July 20 to 29, 2026, the Saint-Paul de Vence Festival celebrates its 15th edition, marking fifteen years of artistic excellence in one of France's most beautiful villages. More than just an anniversary, this new edition is a declaration of love for creativity, the dialogue between disciplines, and those suspended moments that only music can provide. Since its inception, the festival has established itself as a must-attend summer cultural event on the Côte d'Azur. What makes it unique? It brings together the biggest names in classical music and jazz in settings where heritage, nature, and contemporary art engage in a dialogue with the performances. It is an experience that transcends the standard concert to become a true sensory immersion.An anniversary program featuring the artists who shaped its history To celebrate these fifteen years, festival director Julien Kieffer has devised a program that highlights the artists who defined previous editions. "This anniversary edition is an invitation to a dialogue-between eras and styles, but also between the artists and the audience," he explains. Key highlights include the return of cellist Edgar Moreau, now considered a leading figure of his generation. Alongside the Modigliani Quartet, he will perform Schubert's monumental Quintet, a masterpiece of exceptional emotional intensity.British
