Hurlus Festival: long live Mouscron folklore!

An “Interville” in the heart of Mouscron

From 6 p.m., the people of Mouscron were able to enjoy “sports games” on the Grand-Place. New element of the Hurlus festival, this competition, a kind of local “Intervilles”, saw a local team compete against each other, a team from Rheinfelden and Fécamp, towns twinned with Mouscron and a team from Fontaine-sur-Somme, twin from the village of Herseaux. On the program, archery, horse racing, and obstacle course.

To represent the Hurlus, it is the members of the regional “La Mouscronnoise”, of UCLouvain, who have rolled up their sleeves.

Rest assured, the victory was indeed Mouscronnoise! It will be understood, whether traditional or new, folklore had happily taken up residence in the center of Mouscron on Saturday, to the delight of young and old: according to estimates, there were more than 10,000 people in the streets howl!
