The Day The Clash Came To Our House - The Story Of The Elixir Festival
Summer 1982. France has only one major open-air festival, the Elixir festival. The fourth edition of which is unanimously praised by the national press and professionals.
Never seen before! In four years, Finistère, until then deserted by rock stars, has become their favorite meeting place. Bringing tens of thousands of festival-goers in their wake... But beyond a meeting of headliners, Elixir is above all a story of men, egos and rivalries, of successes and disillusionments.
Without knowing it, the Elixir team would create, in France, the model for what would later become the major summer festivals, particularly in Brittany. No other region in Europe today hosts so many musical gatherings of such renown: Les Transmusicales, Les Vieilles Charrues, Hellfest, Astropolis, Le Bout du Monde, la Route du Rock, to name but a few. They all have something of Elixir.
