In July, the entire old town of Avignon is transformed into a theatre stage, welcoming tens of thousands of theatre fans. The streets are filled with music performances and role-playing, theatre posters are posted on the walls, and long queues form in front of the theatre in the evening.
Avignon is an authentic city of art. Avignon, with its rich artistic atmosphere, is also the birthplace of the oldest and most influential art festival in France, the Avignon Festival.
This international drama festival, founded in , is held in July and August every year. Artists from all over the world perform operas and stage plays in this ancient European city to showcase their artistic talents.
You can see many unique ways of publicity here. The Avignon Theatre Festival is very lively. When the festival is held, people from the entire city will come out to celebrate this grand festival. We were fortunate to participate in this event, which was really great and we felt the joy that this event brought us. France, which had just emerged from the shadow of World War II, was trying to rebuild.
The purpose of the festival was to promote the recovery and development of French culture and art, so that elegant drama art could go out of the hall and into the folk. It is usually held every July. The festival later extended to many other historical sites, from the arena to the courtyard, from the chapel to the garden, from the quarry to the church, from inside the city wall to outside the city wall, very lively!
