The Breton Crêpe Festival in Gourin
Since 1993, the Fête de la Crêpe (in Breton: Fest ar C'hrampouezh) has brought together thousands of visitors every summer at the Château de Tronjoly in Gourin to celebrate the Breton crêpe in all its diversity. A flagship event in central Brittany, this gourmet and festive celebration unfolds over a weekend in a 25-hectare park.
The "Mod Gourin" Crêpe
The "Mod Gourin" crêpe is a local specialty that the town is proud of. Made according to a traditional recipe, it is prepared on 'biligs' (crêpe griddles) by passionate crêpe makers. During the festival, dozens of stands offer crêpe tastings in all forms: sweet, savory, flambéed, or filled.
The World's Largest Crêpe Contest
A highlight of the festival, the world's largest crêpe contest is an impressive spectacle that draws all eyes. Crêpe makers compete to make the largest possible crêpe on a giant 'bilig', in an atmosphere of collective challenge and good humor.
