An event that all lovers of Provençal culture will not want to miss. Thus, on the occasion of the inauguration, on November 17, visitors enjoyed a festive moment with costumed dances and music. In La Valette, Thierry Albertini, the mayor, is an ardent defender of Provençal traditions.

Each year, he welcomes the holding of this event and never fails to thank La Respelido Valetenco which keeps it alive. Traditions are there to remind us of what is essential to us and they connect us to our roots. They are therefore important.

In addition, the fair also features a beautiful Christmas nativity scene. It too is part of our heritage and it is important to pass it on to future generations without any controversy.

PLEASE NOTE... EXHIBITION HOURS: Monday from 10:00 am to 12:30 pm. Tuesday to Friday from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm. Saturday and Sunday from 10:00 am to 12:30 pm and from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm.
