The Festival d’Aix-en-Provence is delighted to announce that its dual AFNOR certification for Gender Equality in the Workplace and Diversity has been renewed for another four years. This honour recognises the Festival’s teams’ ongoing commitment to equal opportunities, inclusion, and the fight against all forms of discrimination.

The Festival d’Aix-en-Provence pays heartfelt tribute to the memory of Louis Erlo, who has died at the age of 97. Director of the Festival from 1982 to 1996, he left a profound mark on its history through his taste for discovery, his exacting theatrical standards and his ability to bring artists together around new adventures, several of which became landmarks in the recent history of opera.
