The first stage race of the year in the European professional calendar, in the international professional circuit UCI Europe Tour, the Étoile de Bessèges was founded in 1971 by a former cyclist in love with the Gard, Roland Fangille. In five stages, including the traditional time trial in Alès that ends at the top of the Hermitage climb, it is considered one of the preparatory races for Paris-Nice in March. A team of volunteers, in a strong family spirit, works to keep the race alive with all the passion of its creator.

The town of Beaucaire is the "cradle" of the Camargue racing tradition. With a packed program every year, the sport attracts thousands of spectators to the town's arenas; in spring, the Muguet d'Or takes place, in summer, the Palme d'Or and Palme d'Argent, and finally, in autumn, the big bullfighting event is the Trophée Marius Gardiol. During these races, the animal is not killed: the "raseteurs" simply try to catch the award-winning attributes attached to an ox's forehead and horns. A real spectacle!
