The medieval festival of Provins, initially programmed on 13 and 14 JUNE, will not take place in 2020.

In connection with the mayour’s offices we have been working on a possible postponement scenario of the festival in september this year. For this we have consulted public security services, artistic companies and local associations which are higly involved in the organization of the festival.

Taking in account the very strong uncertainties related to the health crisis in our country, we considered that the optimal conditions for organizing such an event, which requires several months of preparation by the municipal services and hundreds of volunteers, were not met. It is obviously with sadness that we take this decision, which will have serious consequences for the economic, touristic and associative sector of Provins.

We hope for your understanding and see you on 12 and 13 JUNE 2021 for the thousands of fans of the medieval festival of Provins.

Olivier LAVENKA, Mayor of PROVINS
