Le Grand Soufflet, in partnership with Les Tombées de la Nuit & Les P'tits bateaux, presents
Le Grand Soufflet, les pieds dans l’eau
Music & Games  • For all ages

To bring its 2026 edition to a spectacular close, Le Grand Soufflet is joining forces with La Capitainerie des P’tits Bateaux and casting off, inviting you to a timeless day by the water’s edge. Suspended between land and canal, bridging the games of yesteryear and the music of today, this is a riverside guinguette finale designed for all ages!

On the programme this Sunday:

Le Grand Palet & jeux traditionnels

Get your throwing arm ready! Come and battle it out over a game of the legendary palet breton, or make the most of the traditional games area hosted by La Granjagou, the House of Oral Heritage of Upper Brittany.

Palet Tournament • Information and registration from September at Le Grand Soufflet

Concert sur l’eau de Parveen & Ilyas Khan

Drawing on their dual French and Indian roots, Parveen and Ilyas Khan whisk us away to a diverse, contemporary soundscape against a Rajasthani backdrop. A magical, poetic experience inspired by Indian vocals and percussion. Let yourself be spellbound by the charm and virtuosic rhythms of this duo, their music drifting up from the canal. This experience includes a return boat trip to attend one of these two unique sessions.

Les P’tits Bateaux, 48 Canal Saint-Martin: 1:30 pm and 3:30 pm (each concert lasts 40 minutes)
€12 Full price €6 Sortir! price • Tickets available at legrandsoufflet.fr

Concert sur scène de Dawndogz + Maqx

Prepare for the ground to shake! For Dawndogz, Yoann Minkoff gathers his long-time musical accomplices: cellist and singer Bahia El Bacha, beatboxer Kris Nolly, and harmonica player Christian Tezenas. Together, they craft an organic sound where blues converses with reimagined folk traditions. After that, an electrifying set by Maqx and their Occitan ‘techno-trad’ will keep you dancing on the docks until the sun goes down.

La Capitainerie, 48 canal Saint-Martin • Free
Dawndogz • 3 p.m. / Maqx • 6:45 p.m.
