Les Chevaliers du Fiel will stage a unique performance of their show "La Revanche des Employés Municipaux" at La Comédie de Toulouse. The exclusive event features a 100% charity model supporting the Toulouse Céci-rugby association, helping fund their journey to the visually impaired rugby world championship in Tokyo.
- The Event: A one-night-only charity staging of “La Revanche des Employés Municipaux” by Les Chevaliers du Fiel at La Comédie de Toulouse.
- The Cause: 100% of proceeds—including ticket sales, restaurant receipts, and a memorabilia auction—go directly to the Toulouse Céci-rugby association to fund the team’s trip to Tokyo.
- The Scale: The wider tour has already drawn 100,000 spectators across 30 Zéniths and two Palais des Sports.
Taking “Les Municipaux” From Arena Tours to Intimate Charity Stages
Here is the kicker. They are doing this specifically to hand the entire financial pipeline over to a grassroots sports organization.
Inside the 100% Philanthropic Revenue Model
But the framework for this event strips away intermediaries entirely. As noted in source accounts detailing the production, there are no middle-men.
Every single revenue stream tied to the evening is locked into the donation pool:
- Box Office Receipts: 100% of the ticket sales for the singular Toulouse performance.
- On-Site Dining: The venue’s restaurant will remain open following the curtain drop for a post-show meal alongside the comedians, with all food and beverage proceeds funneled directly to the cause.
- Exclusive Auctions: A dedicated live auction featuring mythic props and items from Les Chevaliers du Fiel.

Amplifying Visually Impaired Rugby on the Global Stage
