Gourmet products local specialties and wines Villeneuve-Sur-Lot

In summer, Villeneuve-sur-Lot's nightly gourmet events move to different locations in the town center. Who knows what delicious gourmet dishes you'll be able to put together from one stand to the next? A host of local producers will be on hand to offer their meats, fruit and vegetables, a variety of desserts, wines and beers... All in a festive atmosphere, with live music every time. Ripaille, joie de vivre and conviviality: that's all there is to it!

Of course, the Place d'Aquitaine does not have the charm of the Place Lafayette. Nevertheless, you are in the heart of the old Villeneuve, on the left bank, and above all, you will find nearly thirty organic producers (up to forty in summer). Market gardeners, bakers, beekeepers and pork butchers are present and have been defending an eco-responsible approach since 1975: the Villeneuve organic market is one of the oldest in France. In summer, the market goes on until 2:30 pm with the possibility of having lunch (organic, of course) on the spot!

The traditional Villeneuve-sur-Lot market takes place on Saturday mornings in Place Lafayette and Rue Lakanal. Local producers of fruit and vegetables, butchers, pork butchers and fishmongers meet up with locals and visitors alike for a colorful morning of gossip, commentary on the previous day's matches and political jousting. Since 2016, the Tuesday morning market has moved to Place de la Libération. Last but not least, an organic market takes place every Wednesday morning on Place d'Aquitaine.
