Children can discover this incredible heritage through a tailor-made tour. The programme of activities combines learning and entertainment and takes into account the educational needs of the schools. For each school group, this musical awakening can be part of an educational project.
In addition to the Freddie Tour, teachers can, for example, screen the blockbuster "Bohemian Rhapsody" in the classroom.
