Festival to offer classy entertainment for Languedoc villa guests

There will be some sophisticated entertainment on offer to people staying in Languedoc villas this summer when a festival is held in the region.

Various venues will host the Radio France and Montpellier Festival, which will run from July 12th to 30th.

Around 180 events will appear on the programme, from opera and theatre to orchestral concerts and jazz gigs.

Highlights for people on south of France villa holidays to look out for include Bernard Herrmann's operatic adaptation of Wuthering Heights, which will be staged at the Opera Berlioz venue on July 14th.

Jazz fans staying in Languedoc villas should head to the Agora Theatre between July 15th and 29th to enjoy evening performances by a range of groups, such as the Samuel Silvant Trio, Happy House and the Belmondo Quintet.

People who prefer contemporary music might be interested in some of the electronic music acts and DJs set to perform in Montpellier in July, with Andrew Weatherall, LTJ Bukem, Laurent Garnier and Carl Craig all set to take part in the festival.
