Les Feux de Beltaine, a Touraine eco-festival. The association "Les Feux de Beltaine"(1901 law) was created with the aim of fighting for the revival of one of the oldest and most important festivals of the Touraine intangible heritage: the festival of Beltaine, which celebrates the end of winter and the "coronation of spring". This seasonal festival, which took place on the eve of May 1st and the following day, was the occasion for important festivities and an impressive theatrical presentation of the "struggle between the darkness of winter and the light of spring". This celebration, of Gallic origin was unfortunately lost during the Second World War. Our goal is to revive it, in the form of a public eco-festival in the horizon of spring 2020.
