The best parties Avignon

Le ban des vendanges: a popular festival to proclaim the opening of the harvest, organised by the Compagnons des Côtes du Rhône. There is a wide variety of events for young and old alike, with a parade of the brotherhoods, the harvest mass, the harvest of the Popes' vines planted on the Rochers des Doms, Côtes du Rhône tastings, and a sale of a wide range of local products in agreement with the Halles d'Avignon. All this followed by a great picnic and a popular ball. Good fun, but always in moderation!
