Music Festivals - Gers, Gascony |
The Département Gers in the South-West of France is known for its music festivals. The most prominent example is probably the annual jazz festival in Marciac. But many music fans also visit the country music festival in Mirande. Both festivals are within easy reach of the campsite.

| Music Festivals in the Gers (Gascony) - France | ||
|---|---|---|
| Street music | Condom | This
year the music festival Bandas Y Penas takes place again
in Condom from 8-10 May 2009. Each year this is a big streetparty
with lots of music. Unfortunately the alcohol consumption
is reaching high levels (especially with the young generation).
Not always a very happy sight....[More information on the internet site: http://www.festival-de-bandas.com] |
