Get-together between local residents having adopted Vence and those who originate from Vence

This event takes place in Place Clemenceau and Passage Cahours and Place du Grand Jardin

Representatives from different foreign communities living in Vence present their culture, history and national culinary arts… music, speciallities, local handicrafts… illustrated by the delegations encouraging the public to travel through these experiences and discover new horizons.

Convivial and warm, this event reflects generosity and openess towards others.

From the very outset of this event in 1991, it was unanimously agreed by members of the delegations, that all profits raised would be donated to charities representing these countries either within France or based in the countries themselves.

Algeria, Ecuador, Madagascar, Mexico, Morocco, Nicaragua, Portugal, Tunisia and Vietnam were present in 2007.

Also present – The Vence branch of the ‘Acceuil des Villes Françaises’ Assocation whose stand is manned by a cosmopolitan delegation and the ‘Club Nomades’ who have been working for many years in India and The Niger.

Throughout the day, the public can enjoy sampling culinary delights presented by our foreign friends, they can taste typical dishes, exotic pastries and thus discover new flavours.

Those less inclined to indulge their taste-buds can satisfy their curiosity by discovering a variety of handicrafts presented by the delegations. Folklore and traditions enchant young and old alike.
