Le Bonheur Musical ticket raffle
Dear colleagues,
The IO Staff Committee is happy to announce that in 2026 we have got another opportunity to distribute 45 free tickets to a classical music concert and dinner which will take place on Friday, 19 June, in the castle of the village of Lourmarin, awarded as one of France's most beautiful villages.
As usual the number of tickets is limited, so in fairness, we are organizing a raffle again to choose the lucky ones who will be able to attend the event free of charge. Each staff member* will be allowed one entry only (possible to invite one accompanying person), and afterwards we will conduct a draw, to define the winners.
The raffle is open now and registration will be available until noon of 4 June 2026.
We kindly ask those of you who managed to obtained free tickets last year to abstain from participation this year to give a better chance to those colleagues who were not that lucky last year.
