Dear Bordelais,May promises to end on a high note! Get your boots ready, the Salon de l’Agriculture Nouvelle-Aquitaine returns to the Parc des Expositions in Bordeaux for a new edition bursting with color, flavors… and bleating (yes, we’re going all out)! From Saturday May 24 to Thursday May 29, 2025, from 10am to 7pm,the countrysidecomes to town for six days of meetings, discoveries and festivities around regional agriculture! And we’d better warn you, it’s one of the most eagerly awaited events in Gironde!
Immerse yourself in the heart of the farm
From the moment you set foot on the site, you’ll be transported to a life-size farm. Calves, cows, pigs, horses, sheep, donkeys, chickens and rabbits will welcome you as you hop into town. No fewer than 400 cattle, 300 horses and 100 sheep will be on hand to delight young and old alike: believe us, your kids will love the experience! Even if it’s more than enough to brighten the spirits of our animal friends, the show isn’t just a parade of animals! During the show, you’ll have the opportunity to attend breed competitions, shearing demonstrations and sheepdog shows. One thing’s for sure: there’ll be no shortage of entertainment! You’ll be able to see just how proud the breeders are of their animals, and how passionately they share their profession and their daily lives.
A regional feast for all gourmets
We’re not going to lie, it’s gastronomy above all that interests us Bordeauxers! That’s why, to delight your taste buds, the Marché des Producteurs will be on hand to invite you on a gourmet escapade. What’s on the menu? Cheeses, charcuterie, duck, oysters, honey, wines, Armagnac, crêpes, pastries and more! All in a festive atmosphere, to the rhythm of the bandas. In the gastronomy area, local chefs will be giving live demonstrations, making the most of local produce. Enough to make your mouth water and give you ideas for your next meal. And since we always leave room for wine here, there’ll also be a Bordeaux-Aquitaine wine competition!
More than just a rendezvous for gourmets or sheep fans, this show is also, and above all, a bridge between the rural and urban worlds, between farmers and Bordeaux residents curious to better understand the challenges facing agriculture today and in the future.
Not to be missed under any circumstances:
- The “Ici Gironde”competition: from May 19 to 23, try your luck at winning gourmet baskets filled with local treasures!
