Festival de Loire

Every two years since 2003, Orléans has paid tribute to its river by organizing Europe's largest gathering of river navies. A not-to-be-missed event on the banks of the royal river, where you can discover an exceptional living heritage. Orléans and its quays will once again take center stage for 5 days of festivities, welcoming you with 300 free shows, 500 artists, 700 bargemen and over 220 boats from the traditional navy and French rivers.
