Rock a' Grume Festival 2022
The levels of accessibility indicated are the organiser's targets. The official certification will be online on the day of the event.
On 27 May 2022, the 4th edition of the "Rock a'Grume Festival", a musical event for people with disabilities but also open to all, will take place in the village of Grumelange, in the commune of Martelange. The approach to this event is as follows:
The main objective of this festival is to be open to all.
Even today, people with disabilities are too often left out of various events. This compartmentalisation does not allow for a rich encounter and exchange.
This is why the main objective of this festival is to be open to all, because it is an opportunity for everyone to overcome the barrier of difference, to be able to meet others with the unifying point of "music", and this, in an adapted setting, accessible by and for all.
Doors open at 10am - first concert at 11am.
