The Rose Festival declined yesterday afternoon and in the evening at the MEETT an effective, eclectic program that overturned everything in its path. Successful first day for the event imagined by Bigflo & Oli with Bleu Citron and The Midi Dispatch.
“It’s going much too fast (1), right”? Like an accelerated sequence of life, the afternoon passed at the Rose Festival, on the forecourt of the MEETT, and it’s already 9 p.m. for the set of Bigflo & Oli, the two local children who invented the event. which brings together 25,000 spectators on the first evening and just as many this Saturday, September 2.
Since 4:30 p.m., the public has been playing the pink dress-code game. He tumbles into this amazing new kingdom planted a stone’s throw from the center of the Pink City, decked out in wigs, skirts, T-shirts, caps and other hairy clothing fantasies!

liberating wind
And since then, the energy that pours into this arena blows a liberating wind on this youth who came in large numbers. The weather has stopped getting on the nerves of the organization team and the two boys, so everything is on top for a long-awaited moment of celebration.
The organization, the impressive barnum put in place, the smiles, the energy of the teams, of the volunteers: everything is set but everything is also being invented before our eyes on this first day of the festival.

After having walked to find inspiration, to concoct his little well-holed music, he also occupies the stage space very well for an exciting concert which must have conquered many hearts and eardrums. And then the fire came! Be careful, no fire, no firefighters, no Canadairs on the horizon, no, the raw energy of the Deluxe group has taken over space, time, eyes, ears. And it was by ending with their now classic “Mustache Gracias” that they left the audience spellbound and spellbound after dancing, jumping, waving their arms in a huge, very impressive human tide. Then THEY arrived, moved and fired up, to the notes of “The Life After” (2) to sing “I promise, I promise I’m still with you…” And there, the madness…
