800 people supported
In addition, on Saturday evening, the prefecture also communicated on the results of the interventions between the start of the festival on Friday and Saturday evening. Due to the scorching temperatures, nearly 800 people were taken care of by the rescuers for various reasons, including more or less slight discomfort. The system notably allowed sheltering in refreshed premises made available by the town hall. However, the Samu carried out seventeen evacuations of the site, linked to trauma or medical problems not related to the heat.
