Originally a religious festival in praise of Carmaux's patron saint, La Saint Privat has been a key summer event in Carmaux for over 100 years. Popular and open to all, numerous events are organized for the enjoyment of Carmausines, Carmausins and visitors alike: Bodéga, cavalcade and nocturne, pétanque competition, fireworks display, concerts and rides, garage sales, cycle race... Join us for 4 days in August to celebrate in the Tarn style, with family and friends!

In the Tarn region of France, the village of Serviès is celebrating in June. For two days, residents and visitors from neighboring towns are invited to join in the festivities: a basketball tournament open to all, traditional meals, children's games, an aperitif concert, a gathering of vintage cars and motorcycles for enthusiasts, a pétanque competition and open-air concerts. An event that the Comité des Fêtes organizes to bring generations together in a warm, shared atmosphere.

A festive and convivial program awaits you at the Lisle-sur-Tarn festivities at the end of July! The town's streets will be alive with entertainment for young and old alike: funfair, country meals, traditional dances and concerts, fishing and pétanque competitions, children's games... A summer rendezvous not to be missed, culminating in a grand pyrotechnic show fired from the banks over Lac Bellevue. Remarkable!

At the end of July, the "Fête des Charcutiers-Salaisonniers" brings Lacaune to life! Numerous events punctuate the day, starting in the morning with the cooking of the famous hams on the spit, before the traditional cutting of the pig (also called "Masèl") and the parade of brotherhoods from all over France. We celebrate Saint Anthony, patron saint of pork butchers, we visit the House of pork butchery and specialized local companies including Oberti, participate in the fair of local products and pork butchery ... A very greedy discovery.

If the town of Cordes-sur-Ciel is already by nature a must-see in the Tarn's heritage, here is a festival that could reinforce your desire to discover this singular city. This event has the particularity of being centred around chamber music. Each year, the chosen compositions cross all periods, from the Middle Ages to the present day, and, rarely, a composer is invited to compose live. In addition to the concerts, workshops and master classes are organised.

In Albi, we don't skimp on the national holiday! The celebrations start around 6pm with the review of the troops by the Prefect, the rise of the colours and the military parade. Then follow a musical show, a torchlight retreat and a brass band. The highlight of these festivities was the fireworks display, renowned throughout the region. It is unveiled above the Berbie Palace, thirty minutes of wonder, sparkling rockets, multicoloured explosions, a show not to be missed!

Smart advice: to attend the show in good conditions, we advise you to settle down on the square near the Madeleine church, on the Old Bridge, the New Bridge or even near the Chemin de Gardès. Be careful, it is better to arrive before the kick-off, because the tickets are expensive!

In the Tarn region of France, the Festival des Sports Traditionnels (Traditional Sports Festival) invites fans and the curious to come and discover traditional sports from cultures that reflect the rich and varied heritage of the Occitanie region. Producers' market, initiation to tambourine, mallet bowling, palet Gascon or pelote basque, demonstrations by clubs... In correlation with the Total Festum cultural festival, Occitan and Catalan culture takes center stage!
