Festival dédié aux musiques aventureuses, majoritairement gratuit, Les Siestes Electroniques rassemble depuis 6 ans des artistes internationaux aux influences variés, pour plusieurs heures d'écoute et de détente dans un parc douillet au coeur de Toulouse.
Based in Toulouse, Southern France, Les Siestes électroniques is a summer meeting point for emerging artists from the field of music & digital culture. Its ambitious motley line-up mainly focuses on electronic musicians and aims at a professional audience as well as the general public. The fact that its open air concerts are free of charge makes Les Siestes électroniques a rare and precious occurance within the landscapes of European festivals. Les Siestes offers an opportunity to experience the best of contemporary music though concerts, club nights, workshops and exhibitions.
"There's you, there's baguettes, and there's dancing : it's Les Siestes Électroniques (which means "the electronic nap"), plugging in, turning on, and rocking out" as said Pitchfork.
