C’went for a ride. For the 37e consecutive year, the Enfoirés, a true media figure of the Restos du Coeur, return to the stage on Friday March 4, at 9:10 p.m. on TF1. An edition once once more without an audience, Covid-19 obliges, but which was designed with a single watchword, details South West : benevolence and respect. A light tone that should do good, in a particularly heavy international context.
The absence of an audience is a big problem for the Restos du Coeur, which see nearly 4 million euros in revenue – usually generated by the ticket office – soar. To compensate, the Enfoirés rely as always on a massive gathering of stars, able to round up viewers and donations. In addition to the pillars of the band (Patrick Bruel, Patrick Fiori, Garou, etc.), several new faces are planned for the program: the singers Camélia Jordana and Jérémy Frérot, the actor Arnaud Ducret or Anne Sila, winner of the show The Voice – All Stars.
