The High Five Festival began at the Imperial, in Annecy. A day dedicated to winter sports professionals and partners, this Thursday, September 30 was marked by the Before, the first great moment of the alternative festival in the world of skiing.

An evening placed under the sign of the 10 years of the event. Also under the sign of emotion with the last opening speech of Gaylord Pedretti, co-founder and inseparable face of the High Five, who decided to pass the torch. In 2022, we will have to do without him. If he will no longer be the conductor, this event enthusiast has already laid the first stones for next year, the theme of which has been unveiled.

Back in time, the twelfth edition of the High Five Festival will be in the colors of the 1980s, where films will remain at the heart of the project. The 2022 poster was also produced by the graphic designer of the Cannes Film Festival. But it will be in a year.

Before, the “true-false” ten years of the High Five will animate the Imperial and the Pathé in the city center, until Sunday. Annecy attends its ski and mountain enthusiasts for this foretaste of winter.
