As always, our programme will run from 10am to 6pm, this time with lots of exciting interviews. Firstly with some of the artists who will be performing at Congé annulé, with those responsible for the “Les Voyeuses” expo, as well as Rotondes staff. As a special we have an exciting music quiz on air at 14h00, of course not without prizes. Participation costs at least 2€ and benefits our crowdfunding campaign.
