The Department of Haute-Garonne, located in the southwestern part of France, has announced its cultural calendar for the 2026–2027 season. A presentation event was held on September 17 at the Espace Roguet in Toulouse, where the department outlined its upcoming programs. Sébastien Vincini, president of the Departmental Council, emphasized in a video shown at the event that the department’s goal is to make culture accessible to everyone across the entire Haute-Garonne region. This includes a wide range of events, from festivals to art exhibitions, all aimed at bringing cultural experiences to diverse communities. One of the major events in the upcoming season is the **31 notes d'été** festival, which will run from August 1 to August 28, 2027. The festival is known for its itinerant format, traveling across multiple towns and villages in Haute-Garonne. In the previous edition, it reached 18 communes, or local administrative divisions. Similar itinerant approaches are used in other festivals like **Jazz sur son 31** and **La Semaine des Cultures Urbaines**, which focus on urban culture, including beatbox, skateboarding, street art, and slam poetry. These events are part of the department's effort to bring cultural activities to different parts of the region. In addition to festivals, Haute-Garonne will host several exhibitions. One notable exhibit is **"L'art malgré tout - 1936-1939, fragments d’une opération de sauvegarde"**, which will be displayed at the Departmental Museum of Resistance and Deportation in Toulouse from December 4 to May 22, 2027. This exhibition explores the preservation of art during the challenging years of the 1930s. Meanwhile, the Espace Roguet in Toulouse will serve as a venue for artist residencies, where artists will create and perform original works on-site. These performances will be free to the public and will include collaborations with various cultural organizations, as noted in the Opinion Indépendante. The cultural programming for the coming year extends beyond Toulouse, covering the broader Toulouse metropolitan area and other parts of Haute-Garonne. The department has detailed its full calendar on its official website, where residents and visitors can find information about events, locations, and schedules. With a focus on accessibility and diversity, the department aims to provide a rich cultural experience for all inhabitants of the region.
