The Estello Festival
A festive day in the heart of Moustiers-Sainte-Marie
On Thursday, May 14, 2026, on the occasion of the Ascension weekend, the Estello Festival returns to Moustiers-Sainte-Marie for a new edition placed under the sign of conviviality, sharing and discovery. From 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., the village comes alive and welcomes young and old alike for a completely free day, punctuated by many fun, sporting and artistic activities. For a day, the alleys and squares of the village become a real playground and discovery.
Whether you are with family, friends or simply passing through, everyone will find something to enjoy the festive atmosphere!
