The gourmet fair between Champagne and Burgundy
About Langres Gastronomique
Langres Gastronomique: The Showcase of Haute-Marne's Local Products
Every first weekend of June, the Salle Jean Favre in Langres hosts Langres Gastronomique, a festive and gourmet event that highlights the gastronomic richness of southern Haute-Marne, at the crossroads of Champagne and Burgundy. Created in 2019 by the association Langres Foires et Salons, this fair has become, in just a few editions, an unmissable event for lovers of good food and local products.
Langres AOP Cheese in the Spotlight
At the heart of the event is the Langres cheese, a soft, washed-rind cheese benefiting from a Protected Designation of Origin (AOP). Recognizable by its fountain-like hollow shape and its orange rind, it is the ambassador of the local cheese heritage. The Confrérie des Tastes Fromages de Langres, a true guardian of this tradition, is present to help discover and share the passion for this exceptional cheese.
Over 110 Exhibitors and 80 Stands
The fair brings together over 110 exhibitors for more than 80 stands, producers and artisans who offer a wide range of local products:
- Cheeses: Langres AOP, Chaource, Époisses and other regional cheese specialties
- Wines: Champagne and Burgundy crus, regional wines
- Craft beers: local breweries from Haute-Marne
- Cured meats: sausages, hams and country terrines
- Honeys: flower, linden, and forest honeys
- Breads and pastries: artisanal bakery specialties
- Snails, ice creams, syrups, jams and other local delicacies
The Culinary Academy and Michelin-Starred Chefs
One of the highlights of Langres Gastronomique is the presence of the Departmental Culinary Academy, which offers live cooking demonstrations. Each edition is sponsored by a Michelin-starred chef who shares their expertise with the public. Chef Angelo Ferrigno was the patron of the 2025 edition, while chef Valentin Loison (Bulle d'Osier restaurant — Clos Vauban in Langres) is sponsoring the 2026 edition.
Entertainment and Festivities
Beyond the producers' market, Langres Gastronomique offers a varied program of entertainment:
- Amateur cooking competition: visitors can compete with recipes highlighting local products
- Musical evenings: concerts and DJs liven up the weekend evenings
- Shows: the Compagnie des Hallebardiers and other artists provide entertainment
- Raffles and competitions: many prizes to be won throughout the event
- Gastronomic brotherhoods: the Confrérie des Tastes Fromages de Langres and the Confrérie de la Moutarde de Dijon participate in the entertainment
- Children's area: inflatable game, ventriloquism, and wandering performances for families
A Territory Between Champagne and Burgundy
Langres, a city of art and history perched on a promontory, is surrounded by four lakes and remarkable landscapes. Less known for its gastronomic products than for its ramparts and historical heritage, the city has found in Langres Gastronomique a formidable means of promoting its local products and revitalizing its territory.

The 7th edition of Langres Gastronomique takes place from Friday, June 5 to Sunday, June 7, 2026, at Salle Jean Favre and its surroundings.
