Read full details
This event in Nantes draws inspiration from the classic French folk song "L'Empereur, sa femme et le petit prince," which dates back to the second half of the 19th century. The song humorously references Napoleon III, Empress Eugénie, and the Prince impérial, and is traditionally used to teach children the days of the week.
Attendees can expect a week-long celebration that brings this beloved tune to life through music, storytelling, and community activities. The event captures the playful spirit of the song, where each day the little prince returns until Sunday, when he declares he won't come back.
Set in the vibrant city of Nantes, this event offers a unique cultural experience for families and folk music enthusiasts alike. It's a chance to immerse yourself in a piece of French heritage that has been passed down through generations.
