Time is now, now is the time

Location

In 2012 we are moving the festival to our own beautiful land of “Chateau Anand”, between Tours and Poitiers. Chateau Anand offers us lots of sunny space, a natural reservation all around, a river to swim and canoe in, ample modern facilities and not even that great a distance (2 hrs. driving) to the ocean. The address is: Chateau Anand, Domaine de Puygirault, 86260 Saint-Pierre-de-Maillé, France
