THE INEFFABLE DREAM

 

Ineffable means "more than can be expressed". This is a group more than 15 years ago in Grenoble, France, who dedicate their spare time to making masks and costumes that look like nobody else's do. That's why they are innefable. They are at the Venice carnival every year and for the rest of the year they tour throughout France. You can look them up at
Les ineffables

Les Ineffables

 

After 30 years (1988-2018) the Ineffables have their festival!

The 15th of December 2018 was the big fancy-dressed ball at the “Heure Bleu, Saint-Martin-d’Hères” France.  More than 200 costumes were available for the public. The opening of the ball was at 20h 30 and included a special procession by the Ineffables followed by a parade of secondary school pupils in costumes and finally a dance competition open to everybody with a prize to be won. The music was by the incredible “Big Ukélélé Syndicate” (Ten musicians and a male and a female singer)

CARNIVAL 2016

The “Ineffables” only come to Venice every two years now.
This is due to financial problems. The have lost none of their invention.
