The 2022 edition of the Eurockéennes was to mark the great return of festival-goers to the Malsaucy peninsula after two years of cancellation. Thursday, June 30, the site opens its doors at 4 p.m., festival-goers flock to the entrance, at the campsite the tents are set up. At 4:30 p.m. a storm broke out which swept the site, violent wind and torrential rain, it was a cataclysm. The prefecture quickly took the decision to cancel the evening concerts.

Under the France Bleu tent, it’s a storm. How do you make shows without electricity?

The Main Stage and the campsite are the most affected. Quickly, the teams intervene everywhere on the site.

The festival-goers are clearly disappointed, especially those who came for this unique evening to see Stromae.

Eurocks, the return

Saturday, the sun is out and the Eurocks are off for good, finally! And we find with pleasure the festive and good-natured atmosphere of the festival and its colorful characters. And the concerts on the Main Stage which has regained its roof.

France Bleu Belfort Montbéliard resumes its live broadcasts with its guests, -Last Train, Kem, Arka’N-, and Brian, our walkman, goes to meet festival-goers who are too happy to finally be able to enjoy it.

This Sunday morning, Stéphane Veaux went for a walk around the campsite. The night was long, it snores dry under the tents! But there are the brave, already on their feet to welcome Stéphane.

Some are still snoring and others have spent a sleepless night not to miss a crumb of the party like Dario. Solidarity associations, such as 1 Enfant 1 Sourire from the Hôpital Nord Franche-Comté, are there to provide breakfast to the valiant campers. The campsite manager, Thierry Scussel, has many anecdotes, often funny, to tell. The volunteers ensured this year: Fanny, for her first Eurocks, leaves with bruises after the hailstorm on Thursday.
