Our commitment to the environment and the community
The lavender fields are part of our lives and the setting for the festival. Looking after them is part of how we organize every edition. We use recyclable and biodegradable materials, sort waste for collection, and have a cleaning team to keep the fields litter-free.
Our commitment also includes local employment, inclusive employment and accessibility measures that help everyone enjoy the music.
*Certified organic lavender plantation
*Protected natural area
