Regarding
L'Archipel is Perpignan's national stage, a label awarded to French public theatres by the Ministry of Culture and Communication in June 2012. L'Archipel offers a multi-disciplinary programme (theatre, dance, circus, opera, classical music, contemporary music, shows for young audiences and contemporary music concerts, as well as a festival of sound and visual creation: Aujourd'hui Musiques) and is positioned as a cross-border stage promoting and strengthening the emergence of a vast area open to the Mediterranean. Its aim is to be a centre for the production and dissemination of contemporary performing arts. L'Archipel has been an Établissement Public de Coopération Culturelle since 1 January 2011, bringing together an archipelago of venues in the city of Perpignan: le Grenat, le Carré and the Elmediator concert hall.
