The Fêtes de la Mirabelle are one of Metz’s most recognisable popular traditions, celebrating the small golden fruit that has become a symbol of Lorraine’s terroir. The 2026 edition is organised over two main moments: the first weekend around the Esplanade and Place d’Armes, and the closing weekend at the Plan d’Eau. The festival combines village-style food culture, local producers, the Mirabelle Queen tradition, concerts, public gatherings and waterside celebrations. Its value for a regional culture site is clear: it links Metz’s summer calendar with Lorraine agricultural identity, local flavours and an annual ritual that residents immediately recognise as their own.
