Fêtes

Local fairs, shows, bullfighting, theatre, painting exhibitions and numerous other cultural events and activities are common in this festive-rich region.

The Orthez fair, salmon fair at Navarrenx and salt fair at Salies de Béarn (from which it gets its name) are amongst the classics.

Townspeople and folk from the surrounding countryside turn out in large numbers to enjoy the entertainment and join in the fun. The atmosphere is warm and everyone enters into the spirit of the occasion, welcoming visitors to join in the celebration.
