Venetian parade

Pet Friendly

For a weekend, the city is transformed into little Venice with the association “Les reveries vénitiennes”. On your cameras! Wonderful costumes are waiting for you. No parade, only a free stroll of costumed people in the town.

Between 40 and 45 costumers will amaze you with the creativity of their costumes. Between allegory and more historical costume, there will be something for everyone!
Every detail is crafted with passion for a most spectacular day.

This year again, costumed people will be wandering around the medieval city. The parade is replaced by free strolling exclusively, to meet prefectural safety standards.

An entry gauge will be put in place, limiting access to the city: agents will count visitors in order to ensure the flow of traffic and everyone's safety.
The scale is set at a maximum of 3500 simultaneous people.
Catering on site in restaurants (reservations recommended) and takeaway points in the village.

Please note: visitor car parks P1 (320 spaces) and P2 (50 spaces) are compulsory. No parking outside, except reserved spaces for disabled people in front of the entrance to the city (free).

NB: high attendance during the day, plan to arrive early to park in the visitor car parks. Otherwise, the Meximieux station car parks are 20 minutes away on foot, uphill.
