Tarn Festival

Imagine yourself wandering through the shady alleyways of the Parc du Vergnet, cradled by the murmur of the Tarn as it lazily flows beneath the ancient plane trees. The air is fragrant with the effluents of grilled meats and replete with the laughter of the families gathered for this unique celebration. Here, the fête doesn’t just liven things up: it re&eacutes the deep âme of this territory façoneacute; by the waters of the Tarn for centuries. The Parc du Vergnet site provides an idyllic backdrop for this célébration. The green gorges become a natural setting for festive entertainment and peaceful contemplation. That’s the magic of this festival: to reconcile modernity and tradition in a haven of unspoilt nature.

Over and above the entertainment, the Fête du Tarn revives the simple pleasures that make our river so charming. The boat rides (by prior arrangement) offer a unique perspective on the landscapes of Greater Montauban. Gliding gently along the calm waters of the Tarn, observing the wildlife on the banks and admiring the changing reflections of the river: these moments of river séreacute;nité stand in stark contrast to the festive bustle. The exhibition of vintage vehicles adds a nostalgic note to the event. These vintage jewels tell the story of our roads and motoring traditions, creating a moving dialogue between past and present on the banks of this ancient river.

The Fête du Tarn à Bressols perfectly embodies the summer spirit of Greater Montauban: authenticity, conviviality and celebration of the natural heritage. It’s a unique opportunity to rediscover the Tarn from a festive angle while savouring these moments of sharing that weave the social fabric of our region. When visitors leave the Parc du Vergnet after this unforgettable weekend, they take with them much more than memories: they take with them the imprint of that Tarn sweetness that so characterises summer in Greater Montauban.
