The Montmartre Grape Harvest Festival usually takes place over five days in early October. This year, the festivities will take place from 11 to 15 October 2023, providing an opportunity to celebrate French gastronomy. On the programme: entertainment, music, parades, shows, exhibitions and tasting of local produce in the 18th arrondissement of Paris.
The highlight of the Fête des Vendanges is undoubtedly the "Grand Défilé", a colourful and festive parade through the picturesque streets of Montmartre. Decorated floats, musicians, dancers and street performers march past to the cheers and applause of the crowds.
