The Festival international de théâtre de rue d’Aurillac is a major event for artistic creation and intercultural encounters. On this occasion, CEMÉA BFC will host a youth exchange bringing together participants from different countries.

This exchange aims to promote cultural discovery through educational and participatory activities directly inspired by the festival. Young people will be invited to explore artistic expressions in public spaces, meet performers, and reflect on artworks as carriers of cultural and social messages.

Building on the richness of the festival, CEMÉA BFC plans to organize intercultural workshops, group reflection sessions, and artistic practices (such as theatre, body expression, and performance creation). The goal is to help participants better understand cultural diversity, develop their creativity, and use public space as a place for expression and dialogue.

The Festival international de théâtre de rue d’Aurillac is a major annual cultural event held every August in Aurillac.
Created in 1986, it transforms the entire town into a vast open-air stage where hundreds of international companies perform theatre, circus, dance, and street art shows. Most performances take place in public spaces and are often free, creating a lively, festive atmosphere that attracts tens of thousands of visitors each year.
