March 20 – April 20, 2026

Discover a month of cultural events celebrating the diversity of French-speaking cultures across Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas.

         Organized by Villa Albertine Houston, the French Cultures Festival (FCF) is an annual month-long celebration held from March 20 to April 20, dedicated to honoring and promoting French-speaking communities across Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas. During this time, our cultural and educational partners present a variety of artistic and educational events, celebrating the rich diversity of the French-speaking world.

        The main objective of the French Cultures Festival is to raise awareness about the diversity of contemporary French-speaking cultures and to foster meaningful engagement with audiences. The FCF brings together people who not only speak French but also feel connected to Francophone cultures and local Francophone communities.

        The festival gathers numerous institutional partners, including museums, universities, schools, diplomatic missions, nonprofit organizations and many other organizations. Each year, more than 40 cultural and educational events are showcased across the three states.
