Every October, a strange natural phenomenon takes place in Saint-Cyr-sur-mer. Just as the cicadas finish their summer concert, a bird from another region comes to set down its bags for a market with a northern accent. And it's none other than the swan, who's spending a few days in the South to bring a wave of Alsatian delicacies. Find out more about this traditional event from elsewhere that delights the taste buds of locals and holidaymakers alike!

Epicureanism and asalco-provençal friendship

For over 20 years, the Var coastal town of Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer has hosted an Alsatian market every second weekend in October. And over the years, as well as becoming a not-to-be-missed event in the region, friendships have been forged and goodwill has spread.

At this festival, you won't just find delicious Alsatian specialities like pretzels, traditional sauerkraut and the legendary tarte flambée. You'll also be able to enjoy a unique conviviality and authenticity!

This market is a moment of happiness shared between the inhabitants and visitors of our beautiful region, whether they come from the north or the south, or whether they are more cicadas than storks. Whatever the case, what's important is what's in the heart and what's on thetable... and, of course, what's on the plate!
