Rose Festival arose from Bigflo and Oli’s desire to create an innovative, multi-faceted cultural festival with a long-term presence in the Toulouse region. It was an idea that had been germinating for a long time, and which came to fruition on September 2 & 3, 2022, when the first edition of the Rose Festival was held, featuring some twenty concerts and cultural events, the artistic direction of which was instigated by Bigflo & Oli themselves. The first year was a sell-out, with big names such as Damso, Paul Ka, Laylow, Bigflo et Oli, IAM, Ben Mazué and many others…
THANK YOU TO OUR PARTNERS
