      Each year, several events take place during the festival. Among them are both the "Conversations in the shade of a tree", a series of discussions on philosophical, ecological and artistic topics chaired by Philippe Lefait, the French television presenter, and the "Gardens of Light" spectacular during which you can explore the gardens at night in an enchanting atmosphere.
