FOIRE DU TRÔNE
Read moreYoung and old alike have been looking forward to this event for decades! In fact, the Foire du Trône is nothing new. It used to be called the Gingerbread Fair. Today, this huge funfair is located on the Pelouse de Reuilly in the 12th arrondissement, on the edge of the Bois de Boulogne. It features over 350 attractions on a 10-hectare site, and lasts for around two months. The best way to get there is by public transport, as parking in the area is not easy.

For three days, glove makers from Millau, cutlers from Laguiole, cosmetic manufacturers, and food producers (butchers, bakers, cheese makers, wine makers...) are all there. A convivial and gourmet gathering that attracts more than 50,000 visitors at each edition.
