Will there be a 6th Festi'Malemort next summer? Florence Duclos, elected mayor of Malemort on 29 October to succeed Laurent Darthou, told Radio Totem that she wants to review the town's spending. With the announced cut in state funding and the rising cost of staging major events, she wonders whether the town can keep paying for such a festival. She is considering a smaller format for the event, which drew 20,000 spectators over two evenings last summer.
