Events calendar Metz

The mirabelle plum ? The symbol of Lorraine par excellence! This small yellow plum with a sweet taste is well worth celebrating! For more than 60 years, this golden queen has been honoured throughout the town. After the election of the Queen, an event that marks the beginning of the festivities, it's time for the party and the music! Special events honour the fruit, the yellow gold of the region, a fabulous colourful firework display lights up the sky over Metz and, finally, the Grand Corso de la Mirabelle takes place, a parade of floral floats and artists.

This is a lounge that promises to warm your winter weekend… The Salon de l'eroticism, Erosexpo is an invitation to discover the senses. Besides classical exhibitions of erotic clothing and objects, shows and animations promise to be hot, so hot. Originality is the master word, also you can discover theatre scenes, immersions with virtual reality… And for you, ladies, you'll be reserved for a horde of sexy, well-built men's creatures. In a world where the male prevails, a little rebalancing cannot hurt us.

There are lounges that make us melt, Chocolate and Delicacies is one of those. This exhibition is an invitation to the tasting of chocolate, which has become envi. Black, white or milk, cardboard or ball, hard to resist temptation. More than 60 exhibitors are expected, including chocolate makers, pastry makers and biscuitiers. These professionals don't lack imagination to invent recipes that make us crack. Demonstrations will be honoured to admire them and why not break some of their secrets. A living room to chewable!

The streets of Metz's pedestrian plateau remain reserved for thousands of women for a good cause: they run with a pink T-shirt for the fight against breast cancer. Every year, "La Messine" grows in size and helps finance both research against the disease and support missions for those affected. It's up to you to complete a six-kilometer course through the city, all without a competitive spirit. You will find the baby messine, the mini messine or the mother-daughter challenge from 14 years old. A 100% feminine race that feels good... A beautiful initiative that gives back confidence and hope to all. Bravo !

In Metz, for decades, one of the most impressive fairs in the East has been taking place on the outskirts of the city. It covers almost 60,000 m² at the Parc des Expositions. Accompanied by the delicious smell of caramelized popcorn, barbecued meat and cotton candy, families storm the shooting galleries, haunted houses, laughing palaces, thrill rides... There is something for all tastes and all ages! Think smart: there is always a day when all the rides are half price, ask the fairground. Atmosphere guaranteed!

At the end of September, at the end of the autonomous, the performances that warm the hearts are played. In the Sablon district, the social and cultural center is animated for this third edition to offer 3 days of theater. The companies will make us discover original pieces, in a minimalist decor but do not take away the quality of the game. The program this year is varied, Karamel plays the festivities, history tells the meeting of a writer of some age with a young person drifting according to a work by Christian Guidicelli. Great emotion in perspective.

The Hop Hop Hop festival is a hit! This cross-border open-air show is a huge success. For the past 15 years, the festival has taken over the Saint-Louis district, offering a host of free street shows for all ages. Performance, circus, adventure, comedy, multi-disciplinary shows, fanfare, short form, long form... all genres mix to the delight of young and old alike. Colorful and dynamic, Hop Hop Hop is a cultural kick in the pants!
