The duellists in the stars – 2019 Season
To win the vestal, 5 competitors from Europe and across the Atlantic will come and do battle in the middle of the night. The battlefield? A floating arena made of 5 barges, one bay and an entire sky! And the witnesses to these spectacular jousts? A jury of specialists and a passionate crowd that each entrant will have to try and win over to their cause. The scenario for this new pyro-musical season promises a great show and definitely a few wonderful surprises and discoveries. As an epilogue, a 6th protagonist will take his turn at making the powder talk, without challenge, other than to demonstrate his talent and bring a beautiful close to this 2019 Festival…leaving behind an unforgettable memory.
