Saveurs & Savoirs Festival
A festival of gastronomy and culture in Uzès
2026
About Saveurs & Savoirs Festival
Every autumn, Uzès transforms its charming streets into an open-air tasting room where chefs, authors, and producers gather to celebrate the art of cooking—both as a craft and a story. The festival was founded by the Librairie aux Herbes, located in the town's iconic square, with the support of food journalist François-Régis Gaudry.
The weekend is packed with conferences, chef demonstrations, tastings, book signings, an amateur meatball competition, and a culinary-themed dictation, held across various venues including L'Ombrière, Le Capitole cinema, the local library, and partner restaurants throughout the town.
