DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION
Since its creation, Rock en Seine has been committed to providing a festival experience that is accessible to all. In partnership with APF France Handicap, we implement a comprehensive technical and human support system each year to welcome people with disabilities and their loved ones. This initiative allows several hundred festival-goers with disabilities and their companions to fully enjoy the event.
Designing an inclusive festival means addressing various challenges at every level of festival production: recruitment, audience reception, programming, awareness-raising among stakeholders…Specific practical information regarding accessibility for festival-goers with disabilities will be available in the “Practical Information” section before the summer. In the meantime, you can contact us at: accessibilite[at]rockenseine.com.
PREPARE YOUR FESTIVAL
The festival wishes to welcome all music lovers or curious people, as well as possible !

- A dedicated reception/information point where a team of volunteers welcomes and accompanies festival-goers with disabilities, and provides them with information materials detailing the system deployed.
- Beneficiaries of the AAH (Allocation Adulte Handicapé) have access to the reduced rate (within the limits of available seats).

The festival’s production and reception teams attended training on disability and accessibility, provided by APF France Handicap in July 2024.
A renovation of the paths at the Domaine National de Saint-Cloud was undertaken in 2024. This large-scale project, initiated by Rock en Seine, involved the refurbishment of a significant portion of the lower park’s pathways, which were particularly dilapidated. Over 2,100 meters of pathways have been rehabilitated, making the site more accessible to people with reduced mobility not only during the festival but also throughout the year for visitors to the Domaine.
