Festival Lyrique du Giffre 2026

Samoëns and the Giffre valley come alive for 2 week to the sound of lyrical songs. Singers, artists and orchestras come together to share their passion for this very poetic art.

Description

Concerts, masterclasses, entertainment and access to rehearsals before the final performances - this is what awaits you at the Festival Lyrique du Giffre. This festival, created by and for lyrical music enthusiasts, is as original as it is attractive.

Set in the Vallée du Giffre, at the cultural center Le Bois aux Dames in Samoëns, the program is full of song and discovery. Beautiful music punctuates the evenings of these 15 days dedicated to the poetic art of opera.

The 2026 program is a season of diversity and emotion. Accordion and voice mingle in intimate, vibrant moments, while the Rumberos bring their warm, festive energy. Audiences will also be invited to play and learn with a fun and accessible Opera Quizz.
The highlight of the season is Boréal, with the exceptional participation of Ella, revealed by The Voice Kids, for a musical encounter as sensitive as it is luminous. Chamber music will not be outdone, with delicate ensembles combining flute, harp and voice, for moments of pure sound poetry.
