The Concept
In 1996, a few friends, artists attached to Talloires imagined the transformation of the most beautiful bay of Lake Annecy into a terrific spectacle setting.
Five years later,the artistic operations of this musical nights are given to Jean-Eric Ougier. The director and firework maker creates a new and original concept,the Pyroconcerts.
This artistic adventure today celebrates its twelfth birthday.
The Pyroconcerts are, first and foremost, a festival like no other.
Imagine ! A open-air concert place enlightened by prestigious fireworks. And a stage built on the water to offer the audience an exceptionnal musical moment.
Each summer, the magnificent bay of Talloires is the theatre of this magic alchemy.
The fireworks melt to jazz,variety or classical music provoke each time the same amazement of the audience. Many times dancers and acrobats join musicians and actors to offer a Music Hall like atmosphere.
The strength of Talloires Pyroconcerts is at the time based on the quality of the artists present on stage and the enchantement of the lights.
This makes of Talloires Pyroconcerts a privileged entertainement for families.
