Meursault - Village Téléthon Côte-d'Or 2026
The AFM Telethon in Côte d’Or has chosen Meursault to be the Telethon village for 2026, to mark the 40th edition of the event, which will take place on Friday 4 and Saturday 5 December 2026.
Meursault Town Council has set itself the target of exceeding the amount raised by the 2025 Telethon village.
“Every donation counts, every gesture counts, every commitment counts”
Thanks to the support of the town council and the involvement of the village’s associations, the Amicale Murisaltienne du Quartier de l’Hôpital (AMQH) has put together a rich and varied programme.
The Telethon Village will officially open its doors on Friday 4 December at 6.00 pm, with a concert by the Meursault Brass Band and a lantern parade by schoolchildren.
At 8.30 pm, a fireworks display will take place near the village.
At 9.00 pm, at the sports centre: a gala match between the Beaune and Longvic handball teams.
At 9.30 pm, under the outdoor marquee: a concert by Léa & Julie, followed by Léo Deschamps
Saturday 5 December will be mainly devoted to the talent show and sporting challenges.
Morning: circus acts featuring the children, and a performance by La Balle au Bond.
Afternoon: Meursault’s sports clubs will take turns competing in challenges at the Hubert-Rougeot Centre.
Between 1.30 pm and 6.30 pm, musical entertainment will be provided under the marquee, featuring Patrick Gutrin, the Meursault Brass Band, La Murisaltienne (choir), Serge Chamoy and his accordion, and the choirs from Beaune and Ruffey-les-Beaune.
From 8.00 pm until midnight, the evening’s entertainment will resume: hip-hop dance, songs by Léna & Julie, classical and world music by Les Cordes Sensibles, and rock and pop/rock by the band Sunday Oulaws.
Alongside this programme, food and drink stalls will be run by local organisations.
Local winegrowers have donated wine, which will be on sale.
And of course, the Christmas Market will be held at the Léproserie.
