INDIVIDUAL PHILANTHROPY

 

  • The Cercle Lily Pastré was founded in honor of Countess Lily Pastré, the Festival’s first major donor. It brings together exceptional philanthropists inspired by a passion for the lyric arts and a desire to sustain the Festival d’Aix-en-Provence.

    Join them and shape the future of the Festival with us!

    Minimum annual donation: $50,000

  • Major donors provide essential support to the Festival d’Aix-en-Provence and maintain a special relationship based on the same goal: to preserve artistic excellence in Aix-en-Provence.

    Minimum annual donation: $20,000

  • The Cercle Incises for Contemporary Creation allows philanthropists and art lovers to get a close-up, step-by-step view of the artistic process involved in creating a new opera.

    By joining the Cercle Incises this year, members will be endorsing the creation of ''The Nine Jewelled Deer” at the 2025 Festival.

    Minimum annual donation: $5,000

  • For more than a decade, the Club des Mécènes of the Festival d’Aix-en-Provence has united a group of over 200 donors of all nationalities who are passionate about the Festival and wish to help promote it in France and abroad (for a gift starting at $1000).

    It offers its members numerous benefits, such as personalised priority booking, and invitations to special events and meetings during the Festival and all year round.

  • The Jeunes Mécènes of the Festival d’Aix (under age 40) help create the opera of tomorrow while building a unique relationship with the Festival d’Aix and with the young artists of the Académie. During a dedicated week in July, they enjoy a unique programme of privileged events and discussions with young artists from the Académie along with exclusive access during the entire Festival and throughout the year.

    Memberships: Solo ($300) / Duo ($500)
