In summer, in the town squares of Villefranche , Najac , or Villeneuve , local producers await you for an evening filled with good cheer, where the sounds of local accents and clinking glasses make the heart of our fortified towns beat faster . We promise you a festive and welcoming atmosphere!
In village squares, illuminated by lanterns and colorful garlands, savor this moment with family, as a couple, or with friends. These are moments to come together and enjoy delicious traditional and local dishes : this is what makes our region so special !
Producers for full of flavors
Gather around large outdoor tables , savor local and farm-fresh produce , dance to festive music, and laugh with your table neighbors. Simple moments filled with generosity!
Night markets are also the perfect place to meet people and relax in a friendly atmosphere after a beautiful sunny day. Meet local personalities, passionate about their region, who will introduce you to the Aveyron way of life.
As you stroll through the square, choose your evening meal! Indulge your taste buds! To start, after a small aperitif, choose between farçous, aligot sausage, or truffade. And of course, don't miss the pastries: fouaces, croquande. There's something for everyone! Homemade dishes offer an authentic taste of Aveyron cuisine.
