Over 30,000 visitors a day, 14 hours on site, 4,000 animals... The figures for the Salon International de l'Agriculture are as impressive as its program. But what's not to be missed?

See the animals

For families with children who don't often get the chance to get out in the countryside, this is a great opportunity to see some animals and even watch competitions such as the Concours Général Agricole.

Taste 1001 flavours

If there's one thing you can do during a visit to the Salon International de l'Agriculture, it's eat and drink (in moderation, of course). Producers and artisans from all over the world offer tastings throughout the day. It's an opportunity to make wonderful discoveries, such as Ti Planterre's frosted vanilla at the Antilles stand.
