An octopus head as the emblem of the new festival in Payerne! To soften the transition to autumn, the Poulpe Festival is the urban happening for arts lovers.
The Poulpe Festival is dedicated to music, cinema, photography, painting and the circus. Primarily located on the new Place du Marché in Payerne, the event is also held in the surrounding streets with a number of exploratory trails. Each trail represents one of the octopus tentacles. Foodtrucks and bars, as well as wild stages with artists, allow festival-goers to enjoy a rich and varied atmosphere while dining out.
The event cannot take place without the help of volunteers. If you are interested, please register here.
