Le Mirage / Parc de la Maison Blanche, Av. de la Plantaud 8, 1870 Monthey
10th edition
Le Mirage invites the Cycloton association for this Friday, July 17. Cycloton is an off-site, ecological and family-friendly musical tour where the artists travel and transport all their equipment by bike. On site, the audience pedals to generate the electricity needed to power the sound system. Following the success of the 2019, 2024 and 2025 editions, the 2026 edition will cross the Alps for the first time in Ticino and Valais.drummer Béatrice Graf (GE/VD), winner of the 2019 Swiss Music Prize, will open the concerts as a duo with Domi Chansorn (BE/ZH) under the name Aufzug! In Monthey, Ephraim Salzmann will open the solo concerts before playing with Aufzug! A prototype for a regenerative cultural offering, Cycloton is a return to the essentials. At a time when over-tourism is threatening the environment and local cultural identities, artists are getting on their bikes and coming to meet the public. The gigantic sound system, the huge hall and the expensive technical means give way to zero waste, clean energy and the spontaneity of the moment. It's not just the conditions of the show that make it great, but also the participation of the audience and the virtuosity of the artists.PROGRAMMATION from 12pm: Open refreshment bar6pm: Concert Ephraim Salzmann solo7pm: Concert Aufzug! feat.
