Due to constraints caused by the passage of storm Ernesto, the Public Association announced on Tuesday that the long-planned block party will not take place on Thursday August 15.

It cites the impossibility of setting upthe Collectivité's infrastructures, as well as the podium during a period of "cyclonic vigilance" by its partner (the vigilance was lifted thisvigilance has been lifted since Tuesday at 6 p.m.), the "probability of a ban on swimming following the passage of the storm", therisks of "reof boats and dangerous objects on the beach and in the water" and "difficulties in transporting the planned artists", but also the fact that "the diving associationand that "recreational and professional fishermen who have put their boats in the water will not be able to take part in the bottom fishing competition".
The association specifies that a new date will be set for the Fête de Public and that it will be "communicated at a later date".
