Once a year, in the month of July, quiet Avignon is gripped by theatrical fever. One of the most important theatrical forums is held here, annually presenting the best performances of the theater space. Festival D'Avignon is one of the richest theater festivals with a budget of around 12 million euros. The practical point is that it is impossible to find a free hotel at an adequate price during the festival in Avignon, all places are redeemed in advance. The festival was born in the summer of 1947 in the Front Court of the Papal Palace, where the soldiers of the engineering battalion stationed in the city built the first theatrical platform.→
