Fête d'Essert

The Fête d'Essert: village conviviality in the heart of summer

Essert is a village of some 2,500 inhabitants located southeast of the Belfort agglomeration. A human-sized commune, it retains a strong village spirit despite its proximity to the prefecture city. Its annual festival is the most vibrant expression of this, mobilizing volunteers and associations every summer to offer the inhabitants a shared moment of celebration.

Les P'tits Jeudis and the festive life of Essert

The festive life of Essert is not limited to its annual festival. The village is known for its P'tits Jeudis d'Essert, friendly summer evenings with drinks, food trucks, concerts, and activities for children. The communal festival is part of this festive and participatory spirit, with a more comprehensive program over an entire weekend.

A program for all ages

The Fête d'Essert usually offers:

• Games and activities for children during the day
• Sports tournaments (pétanque, belote)
• Concert or popular ball in the evening
• Shared community meal
• Drinks and food at community prices
• Fireworks in some years

The festival committee, a pillar of community life

The Fête d'Essert committee, active on social networks, is the main organizer of the communal festivities. It works closely with the town hall and other associations to ensure the quality and accessibility of the events offered to the inhabitants of the commune.
