An event...
...cultural: Here, culture is understood in its broadest sense, with not only more than 50 major concerts, but also several art exhibitions, films, street art, theater, and even a large book village!
...political: The Fête de l'Humanité is a committed event that aims to promote the values of equality, solidarity, peace, sharing, and social justice. Each year, numerous organizations from across France (and some from around the world) are invited to participate, including political parties, NGOs, and associations, all advocating for essential causes in our society: trade unionism, social struggles, feminism, environmentalism, the fight against racism and discrimination, popular education, the democratization of culture, and more.
... popular: The Fête de l'Humanité aims to make culture accessible to the widest possible audience, with the most affordable entrance fee possible, despite the rising costs of events.
