“Everything is free, it’s fundamental,” says organiser Alain Evano. “Our funding is provided by the advertisers of the program, by our on-site sales and the small events that we organise throughout the year, with our maritime song sessions. We do not ask for any subsidy, as a matter of principle. ”
The Group “Escales marinées à….” was created following our “marinated party” in Kerroc’h in 2018 when we decided to promote everything related to the sea and water through this group. (Music, photos, books etc…)
