Events calendar Villefranche-De-Rouergue

Every year, this gathering of hot-air balloons over the bastide town of Villefranche (Friday evening and Saturday morning), or the fortress of Najac (Sunday morning), brings together lovers of beautiful landscapes. More than 25 balloons, from all over France, take to the skies for two days. It's a chance to get some height, simply by looking up. A breathtaking spectacle! Almost magical, as you watch the multicolored bubbles evolve over medieval cities. A great way to discover our heritage!

Proud of its Occitan culture, Villefranche is a lively, festive city. One of the most important events for Villefranchois takes place at the end of June, on Saint John's Day. Corso fleuri and float parades, bandas in the squares and streets, traditional musical groups from all over Europe, parades of majorettes and folk groups, not forgetting the great funfair... The town dances and marvels during these 3 days of festivities.
