The Compagnie des Archers du Papogay was founded in 1585. Since then, the tradition of Papogay shooting has remained alive and well in the town of Rieux-Volvestre. The festivities include three days of serenades, with a ball, a medieval show, a royal parade, folk dances and, of course, Papogay shooting: with a bow or crossbow, you aim at a target represented by a wooden bird, perched at the end of a pole, called the Papogay. A picturesque event not to be missed, which puts tradition in the spotlight!

une belle fête ! traditionnelle ! immanquable ! a voir absolument, ne pas manquer la messe du dimanche matin, le défilé de l'après midi et le tir à l'oiseau ensuite pour applaudir le nouveau roi qui aura fait tomber l'oiseau !
