La Bolline Valdeblore honors the flavors of autumn!
As every year, the Chestnut Festival of Valdeblore welcomes you to the streets of La Bolline where a festive crowd is expected.
You can stroll there throughout the day, among more than a hundred stands offering a wide variety of high-quality artisanal products (sausage, cheese, wood-fired bread, olive oil and its derivatives, honey, jam, syrups, and of course, chestnuts…), as well as clothing, jewelry, toys, leather, and woodwork…
You will wander through the village streets to the sound of regional musical and folk groups: Escarénois Orchestra, Li Fallabracs, and Nissa La Bella.
For enthusiasts, the Clôt room offers painting exhibitions – Santons de Provence.
A little more culture, the restored Chapel of the White Penitents of La Bolline, will be open to the public all day and will host the mass at 11:00 AM.
At 3:30 PM: Free tasting of roasted chestnuts accompanied by mulled wine on the Place de la Poste.
A traditional meal (polenta and stew) is organized under the marquee of La Bolline Valdeblore.
