A truly multidimensional festival, it attracts over 30k attendees every year with its unique and heartfelt approach. For the second year running, the Family Camp on-site camping will be returning, with a range of different packages and options for every budget. With the Mediterranean sea just a stone's throw away, this blissful oasis offers the best of both worlds and enhances the holiday feel of the festival.
Speaking about the 2024 edition, Family Piknik director and founder Tom Pooks mentioned, "We are very excited to be back in Frontignan for the third year in a row. We now perfectly know this open-air venue and we have worked hard to get the best out of it, as we’re going to add one more stage and double our camping zone next to the festival area. With more than 50 international artists involved, this 2024 edition will resonate even louder as we will be one of the rare summer music festivals to take place during the Olympic games."
