Although the health situation is far from being resolved, the organizers of the Summer Festivals are in full preparation. This is particularly the case of the Festidreuz, which will take place on Thursday 7, Friday 8 and Saturday 9 July in Brittany.
An event expected by thousands of people after a postponement due to the pandemic last year. If Christophe Maé will indeed be present, Yannick Noah will not be part of the program.
It is the director of Festidreuz, Alain Le Loupp, who indicated it in an interview with our Breton colleagues from Télégramme.
“I received a phone call from his turner who gave me an explanation that I find rather nebulous”, he began. “He would be forced to go to Cameroon at the beginning of July. But I admit that it is quite disturbing because other dates are maintained at this period as at the Poupet Festival in Saint-Malo-du-Bois in Vendée on June 29. . He canceled a few dates including ours. We don’t really understand why. It’s sad because it’s been two years since we signed with him and to turn around, it’s very late. We couldn’t compensate for this withdrawal with an announcement but it will come. The tickets purchased will not be refunded because it is a festival and the programming of this evening did not depend solely on the presence of Yannick Noah “.
Another artist will not be on stage … It’s Zazie!
“There, it’s quite different. In 2020, she had started to tour and that stopped with the health crisis. She therefore stopped and not suspended her tour explaining that when she would leave on the roads, it would be with a new album. This is information that we had for a long time and we were able to compensate for his absence by Christophe Maé “.
The former tennis player was, on the other hand, there at the preview of The Williams Method, a biopic that looks back on the personality of Richard Williams, father of world stars Venus and Serena. A role played by American actor Will Smith.
