A few must-see event ideas for lovers of authentic discoveries:
The Sunday closest to Saint Urban’s Day (May 25): Transhumance Festival on the Aubrac.
A rare and deeply human gathering between sky, land, and livestock in the heart of the grand landscapes of the Aubrac. Over the centuries, the transhumance has become a major moment in local life. It combines traditions, ancestral know-how, and conviviality, and is listed among the “Most Beautiful Festivals in France.”
Pentecost weekend: Saint-Bourrou in Marcillac.
This emblematic festival blends wine heritage, age-old traditions, and popular conviviality. Listed in the inventory of France’s intangible cultural heritage since 2013, it pays tribute to the work of the winemakers of the Marcillac Valley and celebrates the renewal of the vine.
Late July – early August: Flagnac Sound and Light Show
Yesterday a village, today the great spectacle of Occitanie! The magnificent living fresco of the Rouergue region, created and performed by its inhabitants, moves and captivates spectators. Thanks to spectacular visual effects—video mapping, lasers, and pyrotechnics—this rural poetry performed by more than 250 extras admirably combines the authenticity of lived experience with visual emotion.
In Aveyron, you never get bored! The calendar is full of colorful events. Traditional festivals, hikes, rallies, trail runs, concerts, shows: there is something for every taste and every age! These friendly gatherings are a constant invitation to meet, celebrate, and enjoy the fine products of Aveyron.
See you at the Hôtel des Bains!
