Tous dehors! Léry-Poses is an outdoor public event at the Parc de loisirs de Léry-Poses. The title says much of what visitors need to know: it is an invitation to get outside, use the leisure-park setting and enjoy a day built around activity and shared open space. It works well for families looking for a simple nature-oriented outing in the Eure.

79e Foire de Printemps de Gavray
79e Foire de Printemps de Gavray is a long-running spring fair in Gavray-sur-Sienne. The event reflects rural Normandy’s taste for market days, local exchange and practical public gatherings. It is a compact but representative stop for visitors who want to see a town fair with roots in everyday regional life rather than a staged heritage spectacle.
Salon du Cidre et Poiré
Salon du Cidre et Poiré focuses on two emblematic Norman drinks: cider and poiré. Held at the Cité de l’Alimentation in Hérouville-Saint-Clair, the event gives visitors a compact way to explore regional know-how, orchard culture and local taste. It is a useful food-calendar stop for anyone interested in Normandy beyond cheese, seafood and sweets.
Festival Courant d’Art
Festival Courant d’Art uses Rouen’s heritage venues as settings for artistic programming. The event’s strength is the connection between place and performance: visitors experience culture while moving through sites that already carry architectural or historical interest. It works well for travellers who like festivals that unfold across a city rather than staying inside a single theatre.
Jumping de Canteleu – Normandy Summer Tour
Jumping de Canteleu – Normandy Summer Tour brings equestrian sport to Équi-Normandie. The event gives spectators a chance to follow show-jumping in a dedicated riding setting, with the atmosphere of a public sporting weekend rather than a rural fair. It is especially relevant for visitors interested in Normandy’s horse culture and competitive equestrian events.
Cabourg Classic – Normandy Summer Tour
Cabourg Classic – Normandy Summer Tour brings show-jumping and equestrian competition to the Hippodrome de Cabourg. The venue gives the event a strong sporting frame while keeping it close to Cabourg’s resort atmosphere. It is a good choice for visitors who want an equestrian outing during a coastal stay in Calvados.
Fêtes Jeanne d’Arc Rouen 2026
Fêtes Jeanne d’Arc Rouen 2026 connects the city centre and cathedral area to one of Rouen’s most powerful historical figures. The event combines civic memory, heritage setting and public celebration, making it more than a simple commemoration. It is a meaningful stop for visitors interested in medieval history, Joan of Arc and the way Rouen keeps that memory visible today.
Inspiration Normandie 2026
Inspiration Normandie 2026 brings together regional know-how, local products and creative energy at the Abbaye aux Dames in Caen. The event sits between a salon, a craft showcase and a terroir outing, making it useful for visitors who want to see what contemporary Normandy makers are producing. The heritage venue adds a polished backdrop without taking focus away from the exhibitors.
Festival Livres et Musiques
Festival Livres et Musiques brings literature and live performance together at Les Franciscaines in Deauville. The event fits the venue’s cultural identity, offering visitors a program that can move between words, music and conversation. It is a thoughtful alternative to Deauville’s more glamorous festival image, with a focus on artistic exchange rather than red-carpet spectacle.
Brocante de Lancrel
Brocante de Lancrel brings a classic second-hand market atmosphere to Alençon’s Lancrel district. The event is suited to visitors who enjoy browsing objects, chatting with sellers and finding small surprises away from the main tourist route. It is local in scale, which is part of the appeal: a simple market day with a strong neighbourhood feel.
