Roi de l’Oiseau Renaissance Festival

During your stay at Camping de Bouthezard, you can celebrate the Roi de l’Oiseau Renaissance Festival with us in the 3rd week of September every year; the festival clears the stage for 6,000 people in period costume who have come from all over Europe.

For four magnificent days, the town of Puy-en-Velay is decked out in its best colours so you can step back into Renaissance times! Go back in history with the numerous reconstructions of daily life in this era: archery competitions, shows, concerts, encampments, travelling performers, costumed parades, markets and cooking in that era… Take a trip in time!

This authentic festival is truly a life size history lesson and will make you feel as if you are living in the Renaissance, where your eyes and ears will be filled with wonder! You will make great discoveries (learn about calligraphy, flavours, plants, weaponry, ancient games, etc).

Does it sound appealing? If so, then don’t miss this fantastic festival and discover the wonders of a town at the time of the Renaissance!
