19th Impulsions Festival in Niort

Patronage Laïque de Niort, 40 Rue de la Terraudière

From 19 to 27 November 2026, Niort will resonate to the rhythm of the 19th edition of the Impulsions Festival: five days of artistic, political and festive actions to deconstruct, resist and laugh in the face of patriarchal violences. On the program: children’s shows ("Le Chevalier Noir"), punchy gesticulated lectures ("J’aurai dû m’appeler, Aïcha", "C’est Fatima, avec ou sans papiers"), inclusive theatre forum ("Handlove"), staged literary readings, a round table on masculinism, and even a feminist punk-opera concert ("Les Chamots"). Creations from high school residencies, etc.
