The little village Valbonne celebrates, once a year, in start February the Saint Blaise fiesta. This typical Provence village is located near the city of nice.
The village with its ancient houses from the 17th century is surrounded by a wall with four impressive gates. This is a marvelous decoration for the village’s traditional fiesta. Lots of locals from the nearby villages and tourists reach the fiesta. The festival lasts for two days. A colorful parade of mobile stages decorated with hundred flowers, exhibitions of shepherd dogs, folk dance, theater and concerts are part of the fiestas.
During the festival’s days, in the middle of winter, the visitors can enjoy mulled wine and hot chocolate that warm their body and soul.
This is a wonderful winter experience for the whole family.
