The Périgord goose festival in the heart of the medieval city of Sarlat
In the heart of the medieval city of Sarlat, Fest'Oie invites you to rediscover the goose, an emblematic animal of Périgord long overshadowed by duck. For over fifteen years, this popular festival has put the Périgord goose back at the center of local gastronomy.
The highlight of Fest'Oie, the banquet brings together over 1,000 guests for thirteen dishes entirely dedicated to goose: pâté, foie gras, roasted magret, goose confit, cassoulet, and many other preparations. Seats are extremely sought after and tickets sell out in minutes.
For two days, the medieval squares and alleys of Sarlat come alive with culinary demonstrations, free tastings, and workshops where chefs share their secrets. Children enjoy dedicated activities such as goose quill calligraphy or pottery painting. In the evening, the Bodég'Oie transforms the Place de la Liberté into a popular festival animated by bands.
Fest'Oie will return on the first weekend of March 2026 to celebrate the Périgord goose in the historic center of Sarlat. Information and ticketing available at www.sarlat-tourisme.com.
The event takes place in the historic center of Sarlat-la-Canéda (24200).
Free access to activities and the market. Banquet requires payment (limited seats, reservation required).
