Le Castrum 2026
Overview
Intro
Le Castrum is a free festival that brings Yverdon-les-Bains to life with outdoor shows, concerts and artistic events.
Le Castrum presents circus, dance, theatre, performances, concerts and exhibitions.
The programme highlights collective celebrations, personal narratives, minority voices, decolonial and feminist perspectives, and activist struggles. It fosters dialogue between artistic disciplines whilst remaining rooted in the Yverdon region. It explores how we live together, how we pass on and reinvent our imaginations to sketch out a happier world.
The 118 invited artists embody this vitality: a free, sensitive and multifaceted creative output, hailing from nine countries and firmly rooted in the present day.
From 6 to 9 August, Yverdon becomes an artistic playground where voices, ideas and ways of inhabiting the world intersect.
With the exception of one performance at the Théâtre Benno Besson, all festival events are free of charge. However, for some performances or workshops, booking is required as places are limited.
To buy your tickets or book your places:
• Online at le-castrum.ch (up to 1 hour before the start of the performance).
• At our information stand during the festival, located on the Esplanade du Château.
