Running events Landes

A traditional sport of the Gascons, the Landes race is still the main event of the village festivals. It begins with the parade of spreaders to the sound of the Cazérien march played by the harmony that accompanies the exploits. The actor settles in the centre of the track, the second, behind him, will have the role of attracting the animal to him when the gap is made. The pilgrimage allows a historical visit of the arenas, the torils with technical videos.

While the Feria de Dax attracts thousands of festival-goers every year, there's plenty to do for sports enthusiasts too. The Feriascapade attracts almost 4,000 athletes every year! This 10 km race, a qualifier for the French championship and part of the Landes road challenge, follows a flat course with no major difficulties around Dax. It is accessible to disabled athletes. The ^26th Feriascapade takes place at the Maurice Boyau municipal stadium. Non-licensed participants will need a medical certificate.
