Fête de l’Abricot

July
Rivesaltes

Rivesaltes is not only famous for its sweet fortified wine, it is also well known for its apricots. Every July, the town celebrates the fruit with a festival of apricot tasting, apricot jam, apricot eating competitions, apricot drinking (look out for the local drink "abricotade"), in fact all things apricot! Add to this a general atmosphere of fun and good humour, a local produce market selling and proposing for tasting all manner of speciality, and an evening of music and dancing, and you have a superb family day out.
