The Summer Festival of Villemoisson-sur-Orge: An Associative Celebration at Parc des Érables

Villemoisson-sur-Orge (91360) is a residential town in Essonne, on the banks of the Orge river, appreciated for its green setting and village atmosphere just a few kilometers from the greater Paris area. The association Villemoisson en Fête, headquartered at 22, avenue du Grand Orme, is the driving force behind local festive life, organizing numerous events throughout the year.

The Summer Festival: Annual Event in June

The highlight of the Villemoisson festive calendar is the Summer Festival, organized every year in June at the Parc des Érables, COSEC/CLSH parking, rue de la Furetière. This free and festive day is the unmissable family gathering for the town, bringing together residents of all ages for a day of sharing and conviviality.

The Parc des Érables is the preferred gathering place for the residents of Villemoisson-sur-Orge. This central green space, lined with majestic maple trees that give it its name, offers a pleasant natural setting for outdoor events. In June, the trees in full foliage create a cool, shaded atmosphere ideal for spending a day outdoors.

A Festive Program for the Whole Family

The Summer Festival offers a program suitable for all audiences. Children's activities are central: inflatable games, creative workshops, shows for the youngest, and giant wooden games delight families. Concerts by local and regional bands animate the main stage of the park, offering a varied musical program to suit all tastes.

Food stalls, run by volunteers from Villemoisson en Fête and partner merchants, offer snacks and refreshments for the day's festival-goers. The relaxed and friendly atmosphere of the festival invites people to linger and connect with their neighbors and fellow citizens.

The Fet'Estival: The Musical Opening

The town also benefits from the Fet'Estival, a summer festival held at Parc des Érables on June 28, 2025 (and every late June). This musical event complements the Villemoisson festive program with an evening of concerts, with access restricted from 6:30 PM (parking closure). The Fet'Estival has become a popular musical event for residents and music lovers from neighboring towns.

The Wine and Cheese Festival: A Gastronomic Event

One of the festive specialties of Villemoisson-sur-Orge is its Wine and Cheese Festival, which brings together over 70 exhibitors from all over France each year. Winegrowers, artisanal cheesemakers, producers of regional specialties: this high-quality gastronomic event attracts visitors from all over the Paris region. The 2026 edition will be held on April 11 and 12, 2026. It is a unique event of its kind in Essonne, confirming the associative and festive dynamism of Villemoisson-sur-Orge.

Other Events of the Year

Villemoisson en Fête livens up the town throughout the year with the Easter Egg Hunt (April 6, 2026, at Parc des Érables for children up to 12 years old), Halloween activities, a Christmas lights competition, and children's mornings. This rich program reflects the remarkable volunteer commitment of the association's members and their attachment to the well-being of the community in Villemoisson-sur-Orge.
