Traditional and maritime song festival

L’Equipe des Bordées invites you for 3 warm and festive days based around traditional maritime songs. A rich and original programme that promotes collecting, lectures on maritime heritage, intimate and warm concert venues, singers who express themselves without sound systems in the midst of their audience – this is the spirit of a festival on a human scale where the audience can freely express their part as artists!

Festival presentation

Sailors’ songs in Cancale

No sound system. No big stage. Just conviviality, sharing and emotion. Sing or listen, just as you are!

After a fine edition of Les Bordées de Cancale on the theme of Galicia and Asturias, the festival has chosen minority languages as its theme for 2025. It’s an opportunity to offer you a wonderful programme of Breton, Gallo, Basque, Scottish, Welsh, Occitan, Corsican, Berber, Asturian and Mexican songs, etc.

So let’s get on board and celebrate together, all generations, this 25th edition full of sunshine and sea spray from the Cantabrian Sea and the Atlantic.
