Featurings: collective-style events

Here, the programme is built collectively. The invited collectives are not just partners: they carry the formats, the aesthetics and the rules of the game. The dancefloor becomes a shared space, between stage, practice and encounter.

THE SOUND IS YOURS / In collaboration with TSIY x Engrenage[s]

THE SOUND IS YOURS takes over Les Ateliers du Vent for a night led by musicians and dancers from hip hop cultures. The dancefloor becomes a space for experimentation, where music drives the bodies and dance responds in real time. Between performances, sets and moments of exchange, the night moves between listening and movement: come for the music, stay for the dance — or the other way around. 02.10 | From 7pm | Les Ateliers du Vent

FOCUS FUNK X EOV Locking Battle / In collaboration with Engrenage[s] x Les Ratz

A 100% locking battle created by Engrenage[s] and Les Ratz. The day begins with a cypher selection at 2:30pm in front of three guest judges. Six finalists then enter the 1-to-1 format from 4pm. Funk, groove, musicality and originality shape a competition where the energy of the circle comes first. 03.10 | From 2:30pm | CCN / St-Melaine

WHACK TO THE WEST / In collaboration with W*ack à Rennes

Get ready to bring your fiercest attitude: Whack to the West turns the Salle de la Cité into a dancefloor dedicated to whacking.

Colour, presence and expression take centre stage. 10.10 | From 7:30pm | Salle de la Cité

JAM FOR KIDS / In collaboration with Primitif
