It's time for our yearly fix of all things French, as this year's instalment of the Le French Festival kicks off from the 29th of May until the 14th of July 2024. Back for its 22nd edition, the festival promises a mix of French-themed movie screenings, visual arts exhibitions, theatre performances, family and kids activities, workshops, gastronomy discoveries and so much more. Co-organised by the Alliances Françaises de Malaisie and the Embassy of France in Malaysia, we find out what's in store from Emmanuelle Marchand, the Counsellor for Cooperation and Cultural Affairs, from the Embassy of France in Malaysia.
