The RVF announces its 2024 spokespersons and cross-Canada tours!
Ottawa, November 16, 2023 – In October, the RVF unveiled the theme of its 2024 edition: “Launch into discovery!” Now it’s time for the RVF to introduce you to its two spokespersons: LeFLOFRANCO and Micheline Marchildon!
In March, they’ll be sharing their experiences and their passion for the Francophonie with communities across the country, from coast to coast to coast.
LeFLOFRANCO
LeFLOFRANCO is a hip hop artist who was born in Paris to Haitian parents and grew up in the Ottawa-Gatineau Region. His goal is to open new horizons for the hip-hop scene by delivering a style he describes as “multicoloured urban pop”!
High schools can now apply to host a show and talk given by LeFLOFRANCO, organized exclusively for the 2024 edition of the RVF!
The general public can also enjoy a performance by FLO!
Broadcasters and community organizations can also bring FLO’s unique show to the public.
You can find all the information and the registration form at RVF.ca.
