The best parties Indre-Et-Loire

A veritable rendezvous for those who love good local and organic produce, Convergences Bio is a huge open-air market that takes place on the quays of the Loire once a year. Market gardeners, cheesemakers, fishermen, livestock farmers, cereal growers, beekeepers and so many others who make up the region's peasant wealth come together for this ephemeral village. There's plenty to meet, taste and nibble at, and a few militant stalls where you can get to know the world again. In September, the organizers also propose the Banquet Festif et Solidaire de l'île Simon.

France is no slouch when it comes to cheeses, but the whole world is full of them! Tourangeaux are in luck, as Tours has been hosting the Mondial du Fromage et des produits laitiers for several years now. The event takes place in the large halls of the Parc des Expositions, hosting hundreds of exhibitors and producers. Cheese lovers will be delighted to wander the aisles, discovering products from all over the world and the latest innovations. The program includes evening tastings, a competition for the best cheesemaker and other events.
