Born in 1997, Garorock, a play on words between Garonne and Rock, first took place in former Marmandais slaughterhouses and its programming was very punk-oriented. Since 2012, the festival has moved to the Plaine de la Filhole, a much less industrial space of 40 hectares made of earth and grass. Its programming has now expanded from rock to electro, via pop and rap. Renowned artists who have graced the Garorock stage include Shaka Ponk, Bloc Party, The Offspring, Public Enemy, Babyshambles, Birdy Nam Nam, Iggy Pop, Cypress Hill or Die Antwoord.
