Wild edible plants cooking day, Parc la Gobinière, Orvault

Salle du Parc la Gobinière

On Sunday 6 December 2026 at 10:00 the Salle du Parc la Gobinière in Orvault hosts an immersive day on the cuisine of edible wild plants, run by Par Chemins, a school of edible wild plants. The listing says the day begins with a cooking workshop, where small groups supervised by a qualified chef prepare dishes from seasonal wild plants and organic local ingredients, such as fruit macarons made with hogweed, nettle chips and a tortilla. Everyone then tastes the preparations together. In the afternoon the group goes outdoors to discover wild plants in their habitats, with the botanical secrets, the places and the rules for foraging. Participants take home the recipes they made. The price is 98 euros, on registration through the Par Chemins website, and the day runs from 10:00 to 17:00. A group workshop like this is easy to join alone, since everyone cooks and walks together. «La journée débute par un atelier de cuisine des plantes sauvages.» Starts 10:00, ends about 17:00. Source: OpenAgenda — Agissons pour le climat (open data). The listing gives the price as 98 euros on registration and the day as 10:00 to 17:00.

Deep River Voices gospel choir benefit concert, Orvault

Théâtre de la Gobinière

On Friday 11 December 2026 at 20:00 the Théâtre de la Gobinière in Orvault, next to Nantes, hosts a concert by the gospel choir Deep River Voices for the benefit of the association AlterSoin pour Tous 44. The listing says the Deep River Voices is a vocal ensemble whose repertoire is based on songs rooted in the music of slavery in North America: negro spirituals, gospel and blues. It has been directed by Bertrand Richou since September 2020 and now counts about forty amateur singers. The price is free choice, starting from 8 euros, with tickets sold through the association's online page. A gospel concert for a good cause is a warm, sociable evening, and a community audience that has come to support the singers makes it easy to start a conversation if you arrive alone. The concert is on a Friday evening, a week and a half before Christmas, and fits easily into an early-December plan. «Concert de la Chorale Gospel Deep River Voices au profit de l'association AlterSoin pour Tous 44.» Starts 20:00, ends about 22:00. Source: OpenAgenda — Nantes Métropole (open data). The listing gives 22:00 as the end. The price is pay-what-you-wish from 8 euros.

Concert de Noël, recorder orchestra, Orvault

Eglise Sainte Bernadette

On Sunday 13 December 2026 at 16:30 the Église Sainte Bernadette in Orvault, at 56 Rue des Verts Prés, hosts a Christmas concert, listed by Vie associative Nantes ville et métropole. The listing presents the largest recorder orchestra in France, playing anything from a sacred song to a Vivaldi concerto. It invites the audience to follow the crystalline light of the sopranino, or to drift into the depths of the sub-contrabass before celebrating Christmas. The concert is described as joyful, poetic and eclectic, for everyone's pleasure, and as a way to prepare 2027 in style. It runs from 16:30 to 17:30. The listing does not give a price. A church concert is easy to enjoy alone, since people sit together facing the musicians, listen in the same quiet way, and no one needs a companion to take part. «Au détour d’un chant sacré ou d’un concerto de Vivaldi, retrouvez le plus grand orchestre de flûtes à bec de France.» Starts 16:30, ends about 17:30. Source: OpenAgenda — Vie associative Nantes ville et métropole (open data). The listing describes the programme and the 16:30 to 17:30 slot, but gives no price.

Winter Break film night, Cinécens, Théâtre de la Gobinière, Orvault

Théâtre de la Gobinière

On Friday 18 December 2026 at 20:30 the Théâtre de la Gobinière in Orvault screens Winter Break, a 2023 comedy-drama by Alexander Payne running 2 hours 13, as the pre-Christmas evening of the Cinécens film association. The story follows Mr Hunham, a gruff teaching historian at a boarding school for wealthy families, who must stay over the holidays to supervise a pupil, Angus, alongside the school cook Mary. Before the film, from 19:00 at the LabOratoire, just left of the theatre, the Cinécens team runs film games with a cinema ticket to win, plus a bar and snacks. The screening begins at 20:30. The price is 4 euros for adults and 2 euros for those under 26 or seeking work, with details at cinecens.net. No end time is given, so about 22:45 is assumed. A film night like this is easy to enjoy alone, since the pre-film games make it simple to chat with others. «l'équipe prépare un début de soirée festif et convivial, avec des animations autour du cinéma. Une place de ciné est à gagner!» Starts 20:30, ends about 22:45. Source: OpenAgenda — Vie associative Nantes ville et métropole (open data). The listing gives no end time, so the end shown is estimated. The listing gives the price as 4 euros for adults and 2 euros for under 26s or jobseekers.

Salle l'Odyssée

A stage in ruins, an actress and two musicians, and a blazing text by Virginie Despentes: the performance asks how we live, resist and stay free and connected.

At the Odyssée hall in Orvault, north-west of Nantes. Tickets €9 to €23 depending on the rate, booked online through the venue. «Rien n'a jamais empêché l'histoire de bifurquer» Starts 20:00, ends about 21:00.

Wolfgang Valbrun soul and funk concert, Salle l'Odyssée, Orvault

Salle l'Odyssée

On Wednesday 7 April the Salle l'Odyssée on Route de Basse Indre in Orvault hosts a concert by Wolfgang Valbrun. The listing says his music sits at the crossroads of soul, funk, jazz and Afro-Caribbean influences, drawing on its roots to reach a resolutely contemporary sound. The American singer-songwriter has a deep, inhabited voice carrying lyrics that mix raw emotion with a view of the world. Around him, virtuoso musicians weave an organic, supple, incandescent groove. Each song is said to breathe, circulate and catch fire, with a contagious energy that leaves nobody standing still, and the concert is described as a warm, living wave, generous, vibrant and deeply human. The text is in French. Tickets are listed from 9 to 23 euros, and the lower price is shown. It starts at 20:00 and ends about 21:30. «Wolfgang Valbrun» Starts 20:00, ends about 21:30.

(En)vers nos pères, circus-theatre duet about fatherhood, Orvault

Salle l'Odyssée

On Friday 9 April 2027 at 20:00 the Salle l'Odyssée, at 1 route de Basse Indre in Orvault on the north-west edge of Nantes, presents (En)vers nos pères by the Compagnie Allégorie. The piece explores, very close to the body, what it means to become a father and to try to become one differently. Two circus artists perform on an intimate stage surrounded by the audience: they carry each other, listen to each other and take risks, weaving a dialogue between circus and theatre about the father figure, about what is handed down and about its cracks. The listing calls it powerful and luminous, opening a path to other ways of loving and passing things on. Tickets range from 8 to 14 euros, with 14 euros the full price, and the show is recommended from age ten. Seated around the stage, the audience is part of the space, which makes this a warm one-hour outing alone. «(En)vers nos pères» Starts 20:00, ends about 21:00.
