On the Kick-Off Evening to the month-long festival, join a very diverse crowd of various ethnicities and sample delicacies from Belgium, Canada, France, Quebec, Romania, Switzerland, and Vietnam offered by ROCX in collaboration with our partners: Alliance Francaise, the French-speaking consulates, governments and associations of Chicago. Enjoy the Cabaret with singer/comedian Noemi Schlosser from Belgium and the amazing French Jazz Trio Flon Flon et Musette. And… pourquoi pas? Belt out your own version of La Vie en Rose and let your inner Celine Dion bust loose during the Karaoke de la Francophonie, back by popular demand. Prizes for the brave! And by all means, make sure to stop by the Romanian pavilion and say hello to the ROCXettes!

Tickets can be purchased from Alliance Francaise. This event is sure to sell out, as it did the past years
