Each year during Fête de la Bretagne, hundreds of thousands of Bretons and friends of Brittany come together in France and around the world to celebrate breton identity, culture, music, dance, food, language, and economy.
Since 2015, Breizh Amerika has organized breton themed events for American audiences in NYC, Chicago, Detroit, St Louis, Cleveland, Rochester, Santa Fe, Albuquerque, New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Lafayette, Arnaudville and Scott, Louisiana to celebrate la Fête de la Bretagne.
The Fête de la Bretagne in California will feature performances by the Breizh Amerika Collective, an initiative that brings together innovative musicians from Brittany, France and the United States of America to collaboratively work to create and produce original music, bring awareness to endangered traditions, while developing durable Transatlantic links of cooperation and understanding.
