‘Les Calades Provencales 2016’, in other words the summer markets, begin
tomorrow, Sunday 12th June. Tomorrow’s theme is ‘Metiers d’Art’ which embraces glassware, metals and textiles from local producers. 9:00-19:00 hrs.
The following Sunday, 19th June, will see a market dedicated to ‘Peintres et Sculpteurs’.
During the two summer months, July and August, there will be night markets, daily, from 1st July to 31st August, 17-24:00hrs. Except 3, 10 or 14 July.
On a personal note, the first time I visited Aix was on a hot August evening. I arrived from Gatwick, left my case in the hotel and wandered into the cours Mirabeau. The summer night market was in full swing and I felt like I had arrived in paradise!
