Flower parade, funfair and fireworks in the heart of Margeride
Langogne en Fête is the big summer festival in Langogne, Lozère. Organized by the association Les Fadarelles, this popular festival enlivens the town for nearly a week at the end of July - beginning of August. The famous flower and carnival parades, led by peñas and batucadas, march down the main avenue and are the highlight of the event. The festival also includes a funfair, a pétanque tournament, a flea market, popular meals with the unmissable giant aligot, and a spectacular final fireworks display.
Every summer, the town of Langogne, at the gateway to Margeride and the Allier region, comes alive for nearly a week for Langogne en Fête. Organized by the association Les Fadarelles, this festive event has become a must-attend for locals and visitors to Lozère.
The highlight of Langogne en Fête is undoubtedly the flower and carnival parade that marches down the town's main avenue. Starting at 4 PM, decorated floats and costumed groups take over the streets, animated by peñas and batucadas (batooks) who make the town vibrate to the sound of their frenzied percussion. A second illuminated night parade resumes at 9 PM for an even more magical show. Between the two parades, bars, restaurants, and terraces are in party mode with various entertainment.
The association Les Fadarelles, originally a festival committee, has become a true cultural association working in rural areas. In addition to Langogne en Fête, it also organizes the Festiv'Allier festival and the InterFolk 48 festival, actively contributing to the cultural and festive animation of Langogne and Lozère throughout the year.

From families to groups of friends, everyone finds something to enjoy in this popular festival that combines local traditions, conviviality, and good humor in an exceptional natural setting between Margeride and the Allier valley.
