On this occasion, the City of Nice is organizing a grand picnic followed by a guinguette-style dance specifically dedicated to seniors.
From 12:00 PM, the 300 expected participants can gather in the beautiful setting of the Jardin des Arènes de Cimiez. Guests will enjoy a lunch in the shade of the olive trees, in a warm and friendly atmosphere.
