And boy does it do it in style! From exhibitions, concerts, markets and activities, this energetic festival has something for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>Brittany is one of the most traditional regions in France and excels in offering its visitors a traditional trip back in time, especially in history, gastronomy and religious domains.<\/p>\n<p>Although alongside the striped skirts, bicycles, berets, cidre and moules, Brittany seems to have an unparalleled talent at making something new out of something old.<\/p>\n<p>This is the essence behind the Festival of Brittany, which includes a \u2018fest-noz\u2019 \u2013 a night-time feast \u2013 which beholds the slogan \u2018biniou\u2019 \u2013 be new!<\/p>\n<p>Of course in holding such a \u2018vague\u2019 and \u2018elusive\u2019 slogan, the Festival of Brittany\u2019s \u2018fest-noz\u2019 really is open to pretty much anything. In previous years the \u2018fest-noz\u2019 night of this festival, with street theatre, singing, eating, dancing, drinking and merriment, going on until the early hours of the morning, really is the focal part of the Brittany Festival.<\/p>\n<p>To ensure this year\u2019s event excels previous years in the \u2018biniou\u2019 stakes, the festival organisers are calling upon any wacky associations and quirky cultural groups to participate in the Brittany Festival 2012 and make this one more \u2018biniou\u2019 than ever.<\/p>\n<p>Visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fetedelabretagne.com\/\">fetedelabretagne.com<\/a> for further details on what promises to be a memorable event.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s no time quite as appropriate for planning your holidays as in January, for the simple reason that in January we all seem to need a bit of cheering up.
