The Telethon will take place on December 8 and 9 on France Télévision channels. This Wednesday, September 13, the sponsor of this 2023 edition was finally revealed to the public.
This year marks the 37th edition of the Telethon on France Télévision channels which will take place on December 8 and 9. Like every year, the objective of this essential television marathon will be to collect numerous donations to finance research into rare diseases. And for this 2023 edition, the tradition remains the same, a personality has been meticulously chosen to become the godfather of these 30 hours of live broadcast. After Kev Adams last year, this year it will be Vianney.
Vianney, a motivated sponsor
It’s in Telematin, on France 2, this Wednesday September 13, that the information was given. A video of the singer and coach of The Voice was broadcast on the air. “The AFM-Téléthon, as you know, is this association which brings together patients and their families. And then thousands of activists who have a very clear common objective: to defeat the disease, to defeat rare diseases. This year, I have the immense honor of being a sponsor of the Telethon. So I will be at their side. I will put all my passion, all my heart into it, believe it. And I hope that there will be many of us at their side, to nourish the hope of these families, of these sick people.. And count on me, as we count on you“, reveals Vianney.

Donations on the rise this year?
In 2022, the Telethon collected no less than 78,051,091 million euros in pledges. The French were much more generous than in 2021 and especially than in 2020 where 20 million were collected. For this 37th edition, there is no doubt that Vianney will try everything to beat these figures. The presence of the singer who releases a duet with Zazie seems in any case to motivate the fans. Under the video posted on Instagram, the reactions are very positive. “What good news so early in the morning. Vianney with his kindness and generosity will be a great sponsor of the Telethon”, “So good, we will be at your side Vianney”, “Bravo, thank you for them”, we can read in the comments. There is no doubt that this new edition risks bringing the French together in front of their screens.
