This big festival is organized every two years in order to make people discover other European cultures and to promote cultural exchanges, but also to show the artistic, artisan and architectural richness of the municipality of Anthisnes. If music represents the hobby horse of the festival, you will also find visual art exhibitions, storyteller shows, craftsmen, gastronomic discoveries, street conferences and shows, literary stalls, etc. related to Celtic culture.
This festival takes place every two years (on even years).

Venez festoyer au rythme de la musique celtique et célébrez la fête du Samaïn. Le passage de l'époque claire à l'époque sombre se déroule au cœur du Château de l'Avouerie d'Anthisnes.

Cette fête endiablée hors du commun marque le nouvel an celtique. Vous êtes invités à prendre part à un banquet gargantuesque sous l'œil malicieux de troubadours et jongleurs.
