Programm

You're going to spend a memorable day and have an unforgettable memory of our festivity. "Autrefois Challans Ancient Fair" proposed to you its animations :

Poultry, butter, egg and pig market. Around the market, the "Marseillaise" sounded, harmoniously interpreted by the fanfare, set the village bell chiming : it's the Official opening of this new edition of Traditional Fairs..

  • Ancient school behind the city concil.
  • The blacksmith. He works at the bottom of the bell tower, hammer in hand, a red iron in the other one for a demonstration of shoeing a horse.
  • The firemen pulling their hand water pump are rushing to the florist, "Place de Gaulle", from where thick smoke is billowing. Beware of splashes !
  • The "Tour de France" (cyclist race) honour us with a stop in our beautiful country. Presentation of the cyclists on the central podium .
  • The choral invite you to hum melodies of their song recital on the podium of the "Place des Halles".
  • Elegance contest on the same podium, the "beautiful girls of the canton" try to win the tittle of queen for a day.
  • Food : Succomb to the flavours of the soil in a lot of street restaurants. The meal is the same for all.
  • The traditional folklore groups dancing and singing in the streets.
  • The artisans carry out the gestures of yesterday.
