Langogne en Fête 2026: the great traditional festival of the Lozère town
From July 28th to August 4th, 2026, Langogne (Lozère) lives to the rhythm of its annual festival organized by the Les Fadarelles association. For several days, the city center transforms into an open-air theater: festive bars, restaurants, and terraces welcome a family-friendly and convivial public.
The flower parades, a highlight of the festival
The climax of Langogne en Fête, the famous flower and carnival parades, march along the main avenue, animated by penas and batucadas. One parade takes place during the day and a nocturnal version illuminates the town, in the great tradition of Langogne's parades and their decorated floats.
Funfair, entertainment, and fireworks
The funfair sets up for several days on the Fairground, with rides and attractions. Throughout the week, concerts, shows, flea markets, petanque competitions, and popular entertainment are added. The festival concludes with a grand fireworks display.
Langogne en Fête is a distinct event from Festiv'Allier, the French-language song and street arts festival also organized by Les Fadarelles during the same period.
