Carnaval du Puy-en-Velay

2024 Edition - V'là le Printemps!

On Friday, March 22, 2024, the children's carnival "V'là le Printemps" took over the streets of Le Puy-en-Velay to celebrate the arrival of the beautiful season. From early afternoon, a myriad of colors filled the alleys of the old town and the Henri Vinay garden.

Around 500 children from the city's nursery and elementary schools participated in two treasure hunts specially designed for different age groups: one in the Henri Vinay garden for the youngest, and the other in the streets of the historic center for elementary students. By decorating a magical garden, the children fought off winter and allowed spring to finally arrive.

The afternoon concluded around 3:30 PM on the Place du Breuil, where children and their companions gathered for a street performance and a snack offered to all participants.
