The development of the site, with islands for children’s games, kiosks enhanced by artistic creations, a waterfall and nearly 2,200 planted trees, aims to once again attract the population that has been avoiding the park for some time.
Thus, the first part of the Boisé Park, the green part, delivered today, was thought “as a place of life and breathing, dedicated to relaxation, cultural and sporting activities” explains Olivier Hoarau, the mayor of the town.
The blue part, which concerns the water park and the activities related to it, will be launched later.
The development of the site cost three million euros with state aid.
The inauguration of the new Parc Boisé takes place with music and festivities all weekend long.
All this Saturday, spaces for creating visual art, well-being workshops, reading corners and musical entertainment.
Tomorrow Sunday, there will be activities dedicated to children and concerts with Kalipsxau, Black T, Léa Churros or even PLL and T Matt.
