The 31st edition, which ends Monday evening, has therefore regained its place as the leading French festival. In 2022, for the first time, the Breton event was dethroned by Hellfest. Next year, the Vieilles Charrues will take place over four days, from July 11 to 14, 2024, at the same time as the Brest Maritime Festival and just before the Paris Olympic Games.
