Chaque année au mois de juillet, la ville se transforme et accueille le « festival ». Mais il existe en réalité deux festivals distincts. Le premier, le « IN », celui créé par Jean Vilar en 1947, est l'un des plus anciens et des plus célèbres festivals de théâtre et des arts de la scène au monde. Il présente pendant 3 semaines des créations contemporaines, souvent d'avant-garde et investit les lieux les plus prestigieux de la ville : la Cour d'honneur du Palais des Papes , la cour du lycée Saint Joseph, l'Opéra… En réponse à ce festival « officiel » s'est créé depuis 1966 et sous l'impulsion d'André Bénedetto un autre festival, plus « spontané », empreint de l'esprit 68. C'est le festival « OFF », l'un des plus grands festivals de compagnies indépendantes au monde. Chaque année, près de 2 000 spectacles sont joués au festival off. De 9h du matin à minuit, c'est l'effervescence culturelle dans toute la ville d'Avignon ! Infos pratiques : festival « In » : www.festival-avignon.com Festival off : www.avignonleoff.com.

It is the most grandiose part of an aqueduct which led, over 50 km, the waters of Uzès to Nîmes. If Rome had 1,000 baths at the height of its glory, it is understandable that the Romans, having set their sights on Nîmes, could not be content with the Fontaine source.To find the 20,000 m3 needed each day for the capital of the Augustan colony, they went, in the middle of the 1st century, to the source of the Eure, near Uzès.Through scrubland and ditches, ancient engineers had to build a succession of bridges and tunnels to reach Nîmes.The resulting Aqueduct travels 50 kilometers with a total drop of only 17 meters!!The feat says a lot about the quality of the builders, just like the most famous of the works on the route, the Pont du Gard and its 49 arches.Classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, it is a book of records all by itself.At its summit 275 meters long, 49 high, blocks some of which exceed 2m3 and in total no doubt more than 50,000 tonnes of stones, it was designed to successfully withstand the wild floods of the Gardon.Today, the site, harmoniously laid out with a museum, exhibitions, films, children's area and media library, hands down the promise of an unforgettable visit.Guided tours: PLEASE NOTE LIMITED PLACES.In addition to the day pass or as a single product, it is possible to take a guided tour of the Bridge for a privileged discovery of the Roman canals.During the visit, the group is guided to the last level of the monument, in the channel where the water circulated during the operation of the aqueduct.Several formulas: From the visit intended for the general public, canalization and Bridge (1h30) to those intended for groups, Bridge and museum (1h30) or to the remains of the aqueduct (2h), several formulas are available to you.Guided tours by reservation from 20 people, wearing a mask is compulsory.Audio guides:They allow visitors to make an original visit, in complete autonomy, of the Pont du Gard and its immediate surroundings.

A stone's throw from Uzès, Nîmes and Pont du Gard, visit one of the largest cellars in Occitania and stroll through the heart of one of the most beautiful vineyards. From our land to our stainless steel cathedrals, travel between tradition and modernity! The Vignerons des COLLINES DU BOURDIC offer more than thirty vintages approved AOP Duché d'Uzès and IGP Gard, Cévennes and Pays d'Oc. They invite you to discover the fruit of their passion in the tasting area of their Cellar in Bourdic (8 km from Uzès towards Anduze) or in St Maximin (4 km from Uzès towards Avignon). Easy to access, open 7 days a week in season, these spacious and modern cellars are labeled "Qualité Tourisme Occitanie Sud de France". The vine growers of the Collines du Bourdic produce wines of character, of recognized quality and regularly awarded the highest distinctions. Often pioneers in the establishment of new grape varieties, such as Viognier in 1993 or Gewurztraminer in 2010, they cultivate a taste for risk and difference. Their cooperative cellar, created in 1928, has continued to evolve, always with a dynamic of innovation. Today, it brings together 110 winegrowers from Uzège on a vineyard with an exceptional microclimate. Its plains and hillsides bathed in the Mediterranean sun are revived near the Cévennes foothills, which gives the wines of the Collines du Bourdic their specificity: a beautiful freshness. Other elements contribute to the production of wines of regular quality: the diversity of the terroir, a meticulous plot selection, rigorous specifications, harvests carried out at optimal maturity and an efficient winemaking tool that allows to magnify the work of these winegrowers . Wine tourism is another strong point. The winegrowers offer to the Caveau de Bourdic: Expo & Comptoir, a monthly exhibition of artistic works Vines, Wines and Heritage, a discovery trail with free access all year round or, on a guided walk (fran / ang) every Thursday in July and August at 9:30 a.m. Visit of the cellars, a guided tour of the cellar (French / English) every Thursday from July to mid-August at 3.30 p.m. Also, four events in 2020: Les Alliances Gourmandes at the Caveau de St Maximin, Saturday January 11 at 7 p.m.: wine tasting & truffle delicacies Les Alliances Gourmandes at the Caveau de St Maximin, Thursday July 16 at 7 p.m .: wine & brasucade tasting, concert.
