Every summer, the Domaine du Lazaret opens its doors wide for a series of free outdoor music events that are open to everyone. Whether you’re staying at the vacation village or live in Sète and the surrounding area, the Estivales du Lazaret is a unique summer event—no reservations, no tickets, and no strings attached.

Once again this year, on six consecutive Thursdays from late July through late August, musicians, dancers, and audience members will gather in the estate’s pine grove—just a stone’s throw from the sea—for evenings that blend artistic discovery with the spirit of a lively folk festival.

Why should you come to Les Estivales, even if you’re not staying at Le Lazaret?

The Domaine du Lazaret is, above all, a vacation village with an open and friendly atmosphere. Every summer, we host musical evenings that are open to everyone: local residents, visiting vacationers, families, and music lovers. This is a rare opportunity to discover this exceptional setting nestled between pine forests and the Mediterranean, in a relaxed and festive atmosphere.

Les Estivales is also a chance to enjoy a lovely evening: no cover charge, no tickets—just music, the cool evening air, and the scent of pine trees.

The 2026 Program

Thursday, July 23 — Nataraj Company: Bollywood Dances + Jomalik & Smith

La soirée d’ouverture donne le ton avec une belle diversité artistique.

En première partie, la Compagnie Nataraj vous transporte directement en Inde. Fondée et animée par Anne Nataraj — danseuse formée à la danse classique, au flamenco, à la danse orientale et aux danses indiennes —, la compagnie propose un spectacle haut en couleurs, mêlant Bharata Natyam et danses Bollywood. Costumes somptueux venus directement de Bombay, chorégraphies enlevées : une ouverture festive et dépaysante.

En tête d’affiche, Jomalik & Smith prennent ensuite le relais pour une soirée musicale à ne pas manquer.

Thursday, July 30 — Cyann & Lou + Saf Saf

Deuxième jeudi sous les étoiles, avec là encore un duo d’artistes complémentaires.

Cyann & Lou ouvrent la soirée en première partie, avant de laisser place à Saf Saf, duo montpelliérain aux influences généreuses — entre groove, world music et énergie scénique communicative.

Thursday, August 6 — Alicia & Cathy + Duo Tamba

For this third event, Alicia & Cathy will open the show before passing the torch to Duo Tamba.

Led in particular by Jean-Michel Rinaldi, a musician with deep roots in Sète—he grew up just a stone’s throw from Georges Brassens in this unique town—and a rich and eclectic career (folk dances, European tours with rock legends, duets with renowned artists), Duo Tamba cultivates a fresh style of music—guitar and vocals—blending pop, French chanson, and a Mediterranean flair.

Thursday, August 13 — Corleone Band

No opening act this time: the Corleone Band takes the stage at the pine grove all by itself for a long night of music.

This band, with deep roots in the Thau Basin, takes its acoustic guitars, mandolins, harmonicas, and lap steel guitars on a journey from an imaginary Sicilian countryside to the plains of the Far West, passing through Bayou dance halls, Irish pubs, and sizzling bodegas. A country-rock style heavily influenced by blues, swing, and folk—festive, warm, and always connecting with the audience. With Corleone Band, every concert feels like a party.

Thursday, August 20 — Les Baroudeurs

The Baroudeurs are taking the pine forest by storm for an evening that’s their specialty.

Thursday, August 27 — Joanda

The closing night will feature one of the most iconic voices in contemporary Occitan music: Joanda.

A true ambassador for Occitanie, this singer-songwriter performs in French, Occitan, and Spanish, drawing on the 1,000-year history of culture and language in this distinctive region to compose modern, uplifting, and unifying songs. His show is an extraordinary musical journey: acoustic and electric guitars, accordion, hurdy-gurdy, sistrum, cajón… A range of instruments that blend Mediterranean and Occitan influences, creating a concert for all ages that is met with applause wherever Joanda and her musicians perform.

In fact, Joanda is no stranger to Lazaret: he had already set the pine forest ablaze during a previous edition of the Estivales. His reputation is well established—he is the Occitan artist whose singles receive the most airplay on national radio stations. A wonderful evening is in store to wrap up the 2026 edition.
