Port-Saint-Père lies between historic Brittany and Poitou, making it a crossroads of traditions. This festival highlights the Pays de Retz tradition: a melange of Breton fest-noz and Vendéen folk dances. It reinforces local identity by keeping old dances alive in an area with Celtic influences (Brittany) and Romanesque influences (Poitiers).
