Normandy independent festival Rock in the Barn begins its 17th—and final—edition today, running 11–12 September at Château des Tourelles in Vernon.
Nineteen artists are involved, including Crows, Dombrance, Michelle Blades, AFAR, and The Orchestra (For Now). After 17 years, organisers cite the increasingly difficult economic climate among the reasons for ending the event.
It is a fitting send-off to a festival built around independent discovery, community scale, and adventurous programming in France.
