The Fête de l’Huma 31 returns to Pechbonnieu, north of Toulouse, on Friday, May 29th and Saturday, May 30th, 2026. It is a cultural and festive event open to all and families, where concerts, exhibitions, debates, and activist meetings intersect throughout the weekend.
An engaged living space for a weekend:
Located in a pleasant, tree-filled space near the Pechbonnieu stadium, the Fête de l’Huma 31 is a place for exchanges. The associative village plays a central role, with the presence of union, solidarity, feminist, and internationalist organizations embodying the dynamism of commitment and solidarity in Haute-Garonne.
Moving from one stand to another, engaging in discussions and staying informed, visitors can then stop at the bar or at the open dining spaces throughout the day. The atmosphere is relaxed, warm, filled with hope and ideas to build a better future.
On Friday evening, sports meetings organized around football and rugby also contribute to this collective spirit, highlighting gender equality and solidarity.
A diverse cultural program:
The event emphasizes culture in all its forms, including exhibitions that reflect significant social and political events. The Librairie de la Renaissance, tracing back to the Liberation of Toulouse, will offer a selection of engaging books for all ages throughout the weekend.
Eclectic musical evenings:
The stage program features local creations and concerts with notable headliners. Friday starts with “Nous avons la Résistance en commun,” a musical fresco about women during World War II followed by the group “Mèrkut” with Kurdish and rock influences. On Saturday, the singer Mathilde & The Body Electric, known for her socially engaged songs focusing on violence against women, will precede the electro live performance by Les Gordon.
Debates as a common theme:
Debates hold a significant place in the program, addressing current issues such as energy, international context, youth, employment, and the rise of far-right movements. A crucial meeting, a highlight of the Fête de l’Huma, is scheduled for Saturday afternoon, following these collective exchange sessions.
Balancing celebration with commitment:
Blending a festival atmosphere with engaged activities, the Fête de l’Huma 31 boasts a hybrid format that imbues joy into politics. People come not only to enjoy music but also to exchange ideas in a setting where conviviality and commitment coexist.
