Foire de la Saint-Georges 2024
From April 19 to 21, 2024, Pithiviers vibrated to the rhythm of its centuries-old patronal festival. The Foire de la Saint-Georges took over the town center with over 80 funfair professionals, set up on Place de Gaulle, Chantoiseau, Mail Sud, and the surrounding streets.
Visitors enjoyed three days of varied entertainment: rides for all ages, concerts, a flea market, a local producers' market, educational farms with domestic and unusual animals, street shows, and creative workshops. The brotherhoods' village showcased the gastronomic specialties of the Pithiviers region.
The highlight of this edition was the Best Pithiviers award ceremony, organized by the Confrérie du Pithiviers, celebrating the expertise of the region's pastry chefs around this emblematic flaky almond cake.
