FERNANDO CAVACO

12:30 - 14:00 | CAP TEMPO

From an early age, he was immersed in the rich tradition of samba and choro (the chamber music at the origin of samba). For over fifteen years, he has brought a new, rhythmic sound to forró and roda de samba, and an innovative register far removed from the clichés of a glitzy Brazil.

Salle Polyvalente de Vic-Fezensac | Place du Cheval Blanc
DJ Set / "Tempo Sitio" bar for refreshments.

BLACK VOICES &AMP; GUTS

18:30 - 20:00 | CAP TEMPO

Ever since hip hop broke into his life somewhere in the '80s, Guts has devoted all his time and energy to it. Black Voices has the ability to take us on a journey greater than the Guide du Routard.

Tempo Latino & eco-responsibility.

Eco-responsibility at Tempo Latino is nothing new, and the Festival has been working in this direction for several years. To support us in this approach, we called on the Élémen'terre Association, commissioned by the Occitanie Region to set up the "Événements Détonnants" label for eco-responsible events in Occitanie.

Here's our eco-responsibility retrospective:

Since 1996:
Eco-decoration of the Festival using recycled materials (psychedelic palms made from plastic bottles and sheaths, cork garlands, wooden and bamboo casas...). Eco-decoration workshops.

Since 2000:
Risk prevention stand: hearing prevention (distribution of ear plugs, children's helmets, prevention of risky behavior / breathalyser).

Since 2002:
Selective waste sorting: tric skips and used oil recycling.
Sustainable tableware for catering.

Since 2008:
Transport of festival-goers via our Shuttle service from Toulouse, Auch and Agen to Vic-Fezensac as well as the Navetitas which serve 20 communes around the Festival.

Since 2009:
Recyclable glasses

Since 2018:
Biodegradable apple gelatin straws 100% organic and 100% biodegradable.

Since 2022:
Energy savings: renewal of the fleet of bulbs and LED garlands.
No plastic bottles are sold in the Festival bars, and water fountains are available to the public.

We've come a long way, but we're committed to keeping up the good work....

What is an explosive event?
It's an event that contrasts with current event proposals, a committed and responsible event. Committed to reducing its environmental impact, it federates and mobilizes its teams, partners and audiences around issues of ecological and societal transition, and gives itself the means to deploy a global, structured and continuously improving eco-responsible approach. It's also, logically, an event that de-tunes, since it reduces its carbon emissions, waste, energy consumption and the resources used for its staging. And it's an event that amazes, by proposing to experiment with ecological and societal transition in new, more sustainable and inclusive forms!
