Come to Gréolières in Southern France to enjoy a fantastic family flying festival!

No Festivol in 2008

For various reasons there seems to be too little interest in LeFestivol for this year. We will try once more next year, probably a bit earlier in the summer (when school children all over Europe still enjoy vacation) and hopefully with some serious sponsors so that we can bring down the participation fees. Stay tuned!

Meanwhile, there will be some fun activities and of course flying in the weekend of 30 August, around the anniversary of the Cumulus paragliding school.

Welcome

Come to Gréolières for a fantastic paragliding festival at the end of August! The large landing field right next to the village will turn into a temporary camping ground and into a venue for concerts and parties.
We especially welcome families with children, there will be guided activities for children every day.
For pilots the festival offers 3 days of fun tasks, well geared for less experienced pilots with no previous competition experience.

LeFestivol starts on Thu 28 Aug and ends on Sat 30 Aug. The landing field camping will open on Wed 27 Aug and close on Sun 31 Aug.

LeFestivol is organised under the auspices of the Gréolières council by a small group of volunteers. Participation fees are kept as low as possible. Participating pilots that camp in the landing field pay only 80 euros, others even less and children are free! See the registration pages for details.
