REGISTERING TO THE EVENTS
-
How do i register for an event?
To participate, you must access the home page of the platform and give your availability by switching ON the box next to the event. Declaring the availability means taking a commitment, having time to prepare from home in the previous months, and being available for the days of rehearsals and for the day of the event. The places are limited and very coveted, so please do not adhere lightly and do not cancel at the last, as you would put all of us and your fellow musicians in great difficulty. Sign up only if you are sure to participate.

PRIOR PREPARATION
-
How do I prepare?
During the months preceding the event, in the "Tutorials" section of the platform, you will find videos, music, guitar tabs and explanations to allow you to prepare. As the resources you use to prepare are provided and updated over time, you don't need to worry if you don't find all of the information from the start. In case of doubts about the parts to sing or play, please don't hesitate to contact our gurus who will be delighted to help you!
-
REHEARSALS
-
How long do the rehearsals last?
You will need to make yourself completely available during the days preceding the event to participate in the rehearsals that will last for 2 to 3 days and will take place either near the concert venue or on site. The rehearsals will usually begin in the morning and finish in the evening. On the first day, they will take place by section (vocals, guitars, basses, drums...) and then end up with all of the musicians. The rehearsal days can be very intense, requiring the coordinated movement of hundreds of people including musicians, technicians and volunteers. You must therefore respect the timings and the rules given on the platform by the conductor and the staff present on the spot. The app greatly facilitates this task!
-
What should I bring with me to the rehearsals?
On the registration platform, you will find a list of what you will need to bring with you. A specific place is assigned to each musician on the stage. You can leave your instrument (example: drums) or equipment (example: amp) at the place that has been assigned to you. What you leave at your place will remain there for the duration of the rehearsals and the concert, even at night. So you will have to protect it and perhaps cover it with a waterproof sheet. The security staff are responsible for ensuring the care of the instruments during the night.
-
THE CONCERT
-
What should musicians do?
The concert is the culmination of our adventure. After having prepared for months and having gone through the rehearsals under the leadership of the conductor, you will perform in front of thousands of people, supported by a production worthy of the top rock stars! Like during the tests, there will be timings and rules to respect.
-
AFTER THE EVENT
-
What happens after the concert is over?
After the concert, you will need to take down your equipment and remove it from the stadium. As the team starts to dismantle the facilities as soon as the audience leaves, you must not leave behind any equipment belonging to you. In the days following the event, you can download your certificate of participation. You will also have the opportunity to see and download photos from the concert that you have actively participated in!
