The hosting association · 4th edition
Les Copains
Non-profit association (loi 1901) based in Maubourguet (Hautes-Pyrénées). Hosting structure behind ElectroCorner festival since 2022.
The origin
"Born from an idea shared among childhood friends, all from Maubourguet, united by their passion for electronic music. The desire to bring back the experiences lived at European festivals — to let Maubourguet and its surroundings, the youth, the curious, the music lovers… experience an electro festival."
