Events calendar Les volcans d'Auvergne

The wedding show is held at Studio 120 in Cournon. For years, it has always known how to renew its showcase, revealing to future brides and grooms in search of ideas the latest trends around this great celebration. On the program, in addition to the fifty or so exhibitors from the region, there are parades of costumes, dresses, lingerie and bouquets, and hair shows. Jewelers, caterers of all types, hall renters, DJs, wine merchants, decorators, printers, car rental companies: every detail of the festival and its many traditions are covered. The exhibition is enhanced by a contest that will offer their honeymoon trip to the lucky winners.

This show is dedicated to well-being. Exhibitors here include reflexologists, sophrologists, aromatherapists, acupuncturists, magnetizers, hypnotherapists, mediums... all professionals who help people feel better, physically and mentally. Artists and craftspeople are also part of the show. Conferences on specific themes are held over the two days. This year, for the 2nd edition, workshops will be offered. An opportunity to try out and learn certain practices.

In Clermont-Ferrand, science also has its own short film festival. For one week, during the Fête de la Sciences, short scientific films (documentaries, fiction, animation) are screened. Some twenty works are screened at the Espace Georges Conchon, around themes chosen each year. More recently, screenings have been held throughout the Auvergne region on request. The festival is organized by INRAE, the Henri-Lecoq Museum, the city of Clermont-Ferrand, the Astu'sciences association and the Conseil départemental du Puy-de-Dôme.

The wine fairs of the independent winegrowers are not fairs like the others. You will meet the winegrowers themselves, who will each tell you in their own words their history, their wine, their job. The opportunity of a beautiful walk through the wine-producing France, with accents as diverse as the men are different and the wines varied. Equipped with the essential tool, a tasting glass offered at the entrance, the independent winegrowers will welcome you as in their cellars.

About ten Vintage Fairs take place in France each year, including one in Clermont-Ferrand. The idea was born in 2007 at the initiative of Laurent Journo, author of the book Vintage passion. The show brings together vintage professionals, that is to say more than 100 exhibitors, among the best experts in fashion, furniture, accessories, electronic objects, but also iconic games because of their design or their sometimes forgotten use, vinyl records, cars... Nostalgic or fashion fans, Sunday bargain hunters or professionals, collectors or families, all come here to discover elements of everyday life from the 1950's to the 1990's, and to unearth, in this immense Ali Baba's cave, THE item.

For over twenty years, the Hispanic Film Week has been supported by the association of the same name. It offers many films, recent or great classics, from all Spanish-speaking countries. The selection is designed to attract the interest of both film buffs and amateurs. The screenings are always in the original version with French subtitles. During the rest of the year, other screenings are organized, some of which are specially dedicated to school audiences.
