  • Live Concert: Varied music to liven up the evening
  • Entertainment: Festive and convivial moments until 11:30 PM

The Château de Dormans, an Exceptional Setting

The Château de Dormans and its park offer a remarkable setting for these summer evenings. Located in the heart of the Marne Valley, about 40 minutes from Reims, the château overlooks the Champagne vineyards and offers an exceptional panorama. The tree-lined park is ideally suited for outdoor evenings, between tastings and music.

Champagne Day and Year-Round Events

Beyond the Apéros du Château, the Dormans Effervescences association organizes other events throughout the year, including the celebration of Champagne Day in October and themed tastings.
