Décroissance, le festival 2024

25.06.2024

2024 festival decroissance affiche 2024

Décroissance le festival aims to give voice to the pride of the "décroissance" people. We want to live differently, and many of us are already experimenting.

Scientific findings on the ecological emergency are not enough. We need to open the emergency exit door with a bang. Faced with an unbearable "no future", happy alternatives to the current system are already taking shape - fairer, more democratic, more harmonious.

A balance between the living and the economy is possible.

During three days of festivities, arts, discussions, games... we invite you to experience a "décroissant" way of life and to rediscover the joys that break away from consumerism. To experience the joys of connection, exchange, imagination, humanity and the slowing down of time.

To celebrate, to chat until late, to play, to think, to act, to give the best for free.
Come by train, bike, carpool, on foot, for an hour or three days...
