Convenanza Festival
On September 29 and 30, the not-to-be-missed festival of the electro scene celebrates its tenth anniversary at the château.
10 years of Convenanza
The not-to-be-missed Convenza festival, co-produced with the Centre des Monuments Nationaux, celebrates its 10th anniversary this year.
When DJ Andrew Weatherall visited the Cité de Carcassonne in 2013, it was love at first sight! He decided to create his own festival there. He then became fascinated by the history of the Cathars, hence the name of the festival "Convenanza", which refers to the rite of conversion to the Cathar faith. In 2014, Convenanza takes over the château's Cour d'Honneur with a program that puts the spotlight on musical discoveries.
Heritage and artistic exclusivity are the magic and success of the festival: every year, an international audience gathers at the Château for what has become the musical event of the autumn! Victim once again of its own success, the festival has sold out. We're delighted, and look forward to welcoming festival-goers on September 29 and 30.
