The 20th Anniversary of the Festival des Architectures Vives in Montpellier in 2026
To mark this symbolic anniversary, the FAV is evolving its traditional format and presenting a distinctive edition focused on Transmission. In 2026, the festival will once again take over the courtyards of Montpellier’s private mansions from June 9 to 14.
For this occasion, emblematic teams from previous editions are invited to take on a new role: that of mentors. This role represents a symbolic passing of the torch and a gesture of trust toward the new generation, while remaining rooted in a collective approach.
