Let all Potterheads and aspiring sorcerers dust off their brooms and magic wands… This Sunday, July 28th from 10am to 6pm, the charming village of Pélussin in the Loire will be transformed into the stage for the 2nd edition of a truly enchanting event: Lestrange Festival. A magical and free festival for children and adults alike, offering a diverse and exciting program that will delight all lovers of magic. Prepare for a day filled with wonder, as you immerse yourself in a magical creators market showcasing unique and original products handcrafted by talented artisans from the region (enchanted jewelry, bewitching decor items, cosplay accessories), delicious food trucks, an escape game, captivating demonstrations, and a variety of workshops to enhance your wizarding skills. **Step into a world inspired by Harry Potter** Founded by three sisters from the association Comme au Temps Jadis, Lestrange Festival aims to unite individuals passionate about magic and sorcery, Harry Potter enthusiasts, and those who are just beginning to explore this fantastical realm. Calling all inquisitive minds! The festival's grand debut will take place near the Château de Virieu, a fitting backdrop for such a magical event, where attendees will have the opportunity to discover the creativity of local artists and cuisine. The choice of July 28th was no coincidence, as it falls just a few days (a mere 3 to be exact) before the birthday of everyone's beloved wizard, Harry Potter. Last year, the festival welcomed over 10,000 attendees who were captivated by the magic of L'Estrange Festival. The entire region is sure to buzz with excitement as the event draws near.Rhythm of sorcery and magic tricks...
