Fête de Menoncourt

Menoncourt and its festival: a meeting of village conviviality

The village of Menoncourt (90150) is a commune in the Territoire de Belfort belonging to the eponymous canton. Located in the Belfort plain, this village benefits from a pleasant rural setting while being close to the urban centers of the Belfort-Montbéliard agglomeration. Its village hall, Rue des Bochets, is at the heart of local associative life and regularly hosts village events.

A festival that brings all generations together

The Fête de Menoncourt is the ultimate unifying event for the commune. Continuing the traditions of Franche-Comté village festivals, this annual celebration mobilizes local associations, the festival committee, and the many volunteers who enrich community life. Children, families, and elders come together to share a festive moment in a warm and relaxed atmosphere.

Over the years, the Fête de Menoncourt has added new activities while preserving the traditional elements that make it charming: pétanque, the convivial meal, the dance evening, and children's games remain at the heart of the program.

The festival program

The Fête de Menoncourt generally offers:

• Festive opening with musical entertainment
• Pétanque tournament open to all
• Games and activities for children (inflatable castle, races, traditional games)
• Associative refreshment stand with regional beers and cold drinks
• Village meal or collective barbecue
• Dance evening with a band or DJ

New Year's Eve Party

Menoncourt also organizes a New Year's Eve party that brings residents together for a festive community celebration. This complementary tradition demonstrates the village's associative vitality and its inhabitants' attachment to moments of collective sharing.

Geographical setting and attractiveness

Menoncourt is located about fifteen kilometers from Belfort and Montbéliard, in a green rural area. The village benefits from a privileged geographical location, between the Belfort plain and the first hills of the Vosges. This pleasant natural setting attracts visitors from neighboring communes during the summer festival, which is an opportunity to discover or rediscover this authentic village in the Territoire de Belfort.

Associative life, the village's driving force

As in many rural communes in the Territoire de Belfort, associative life plays an essential role in Menoncourt. The festival committee, sports clubs, and cultural associations work together to keep the village vibrant throughout the year. The annual festival is the highlight of this collective dynamic, the moment when the volunteers' work is visible and appreciated by the entire community.
