Fête des Bruyères, Beuzec-Cap-Sizun
Fete des Bruyeres
2ème Dimanche d’Aout
Sur ce Site
Musique et Danse de Bretagne et d’Ailleurs
On our way from the parking to the cliffs of Beuzec-Cap-Sizun, Bretagne, we passed workers dismantling a stage from a festival that ended the previous day plus a sign explaining what we had just missed. Fête de Bruyères (“Heather festival”) is a local folk festival with dance and music held every second Sunday in August. The billboard shows a man in folk costume playing bagpipe and women in traditional clothing riding a horse carriage, with the côte sauvage (“wild coast”) as a backdrop. The airbrushed image is partly covered with vinyl lettering, using a different font for each line. It is signed by local sign firm Le Bars Publicité in the bottom left corner, but not dated.
Ferns, heather, rocks and sea: the côte sauvage.
