Le Petit Festival du Théâtre is a non-profit festival, a community of art and science dreamers from around the world, and a showcase for art and science lovers & patrons from all over our ‘blue planet’.

Since 2005, Le Petit Festival has brought together artists, performers, scientists, cultural organisations and audiences through inspiring international festivals and creative encounters. Rooted in Europe and open to the world, the festival celebrates theatre, dance, music, visual arts and interdisciplinary collaborations that encourage dialogue, curiosity and human connection.
