Les Carrières is a historical site and open-air performance venue located in the Gard department of southern France. Originally a limestone quarry – hence the name “the quarries” – it was repurposed for cultural events beginning in the 1960s. The venue is renowned for its exceptional acoustics stemming from the natural amphitheater formed by the stone walls of the former quarry. It has hosted a diverse range of performances including opera, theater, dance, and musical concerts featuring internationally recognized artists. The unique setting provides a distinctive atmosphere for live performances due to its combination of natural beauty and historical significance. The site is managed by a local association dedicated to preserving its cultural heritage.
