The 2015 Montmartre Grape Harvest Festival

Published: Updated:

I tell you about it every year, because it is one of those Parisian events that brings me the most joy. The Montmartre Grape Harvest Festival is coming back to enchant Paris from October 7th to 11th.

This beautiful autumn Parisian operation highlights a neighborhood, its history, and its wine production through a festive and friendly moment.

Sponsored this year by Mélanie Thierry and the singer Raphaël, this 2015 Grape Harvest Festival will be themed around the Planet and will offer a rich and varied program mixing music, words, exhibitions, gastronomy, and of course, oenology.

On the program: exhibitions, cinema, choirs, lectures, concerts, open stages, street performances, fireworks at the foot of the Sacré-Cœur, and balls!

  • The Taste Trail with 160 stands spread over 1400m2. Also stop by the School of Taste in the Jardin St Pierre for adults and children alike.

Regions Village

  • Green walks and unusual tours with 3 guides: do you really know the 18th arrondissement? In the shared gardens, public gardens, private gardens, on the rooftops, etc…
  • At the 3 Baudets, wine will sing and the CIVB will invite the public to taste Bordeaux wines, with, in addition, an exceptional presentation on Thursday, October 8th of the Cité des Civilisations du Vin, which will soon open its doors in Bordeaux.
