Saturday June 29, 2024, it was not easy to find a parking space in Bais, in Mayenne, due to the large crowds at the Baldifolies, organized by the Harmonie de Bais, in Mayenne, which saw the passage of more 5,500 festival-goers from across the region.
1,200 musicians and choristers
Substantial logistics were put in place by more than 200 volunteers for the tenth edition of this music festival which brought together 1,200 musicians and singers on site. A unique festival of its kind. “Music is a great way to bring together an intergenerational audience with this year’s original compositions, a celebratory anniversary,” commented President Loïc Renault and the organizers. Six stages hosted jazz choirs including the Big Bang Sud-Mayenne, street music from Gorron, Bais, Évron, the Blue Gène Symphonique de la Haute Mayenne, the Coëvrons conservatory, Laval Agglo, the harmonies and fanfares, the Grand Chœur des Baldifolies with 120 choristers and at the end the Génération orchestra.
Non-stop music from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. with a closing clap at 2 a.m.
