Friendly competition and a warm atmosphere For the third consecutive year, the Vaison Ventoux region is reviving the tradition of an fall event that travels from town to town for gatherings where camaraderie and sharing will always be the watchwords. But this year brings a brand-new format featuring a talent contest. Structured as a friendly competition between villages, the goal is also to showcase the region’s artistic talents. 15 municipalities in the running Fifteen municipalities in Vaison Ventoux will participate this year across thirteen events (the three municipalities of the Toulourenc Valley are jointly organizing one evening’s event). In each village where the festival stops, a jury will select the winning act to represent it in the Grand Finale. All the events in the municipalities will feature a festive meal alongside the talent contest, often with other entertainment to further enhance the joy of being together (detailed program to follow). The Grand Finale will be held on Thursday, December 3, at the cultural center in Vaison-la-Romaine and will bring together all the participating towns, each of which will present its talent. Which three municipalities in Vaison Ventoux will win this friendly competition, and whose winning act will take the podium? The three winning acts from the “Etoiles d’automne” Grand Finale will receive wonderful prizes, valued between €200 and €500. Get ready for some wonderful moments of emotion and togetherness! -- Organizing this festival is the Vaison Ventoux Community of Municipalities, along with its Vaison Ventoux Provence Tourist Office, working hand in hand with the municipalities and festival committees.
