Francophonie Village: Siem Reap ready to celebrate the art of living the French way

From November 14 to 16, 2025, Siem Reap will dress up in the colors of the Francophonie and invites enthusiasts, families, and the curious to a festive immersion at the heart of the Village de la Francophonie. On the riverbanks, at the corner of 5th Street and Pokambor Avenue, this unmissable event will offer a variety of cultures, activities, and flavors in a friendly atmosphere open to all.

Three days of discoveries and sharing

During these three days, more than 50 exhibitors—artisans, artists, restaurateurs, institutions—will offer the best of Francophone and Khmer craftsmanship, gastronomy, and creativity. The program promises to be overflowing: interactive workshops for young and old, demonstrations of local know-how, culinary tastings between golden croissants and revisited Khmer dishes, as well as a vibrant stage hosting concerts, contemporary dance performances, and street animations.

An opening in music and light

On Friday, November 14, the inauguration ceremony will set the tone with official speeches, cultural performances, and a fusion culinary experience celebrating the dialogue between Khmer tradition and French refinement. The audience will enjoy a Franco-Khmer concert under artistic riverbank illuminations, symbolizing the union of cultures and diversity.

When diversity becomes a stage

Among Saturday’s highlights, singer Fabienne Thibeault, the legendary voice of Francophone song, will enchant the public, accompanied by Khmer and Francophone artists. Children will benefit from adapted workshops, while adults will gather for gourmet sessions, artisan markets, and live shows embodying the richness of intercultural dialogue.

The art of living the French way and the taste of Cambodia

On Sunday, traditional French and Khmer games, creative workshops, culinary demonstrations, and tastings will conclude the event in a spirit of conviviality and celebration. The Village de la Francophonie illustrates, over three days, the art of living the French way, while highlighting local know-how and traditions to the eyes of a diverse community.

An open and free event

Led by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry France Cambodia (CCIFC) and supported by prestigious partners and associations, this free festival expects more than 5,000 visitors coming to celebrate the French language and the diversity that accompanies it. Whether savoring a refined wine, discovering Khmer craftsmanship, or vibrating to the rhythm of mixed music, everyone will find their place at the Village de la Francophonie in Siem Reap.
