Chefs celebrate producers in Saint-Tropez

A gourmet and convivial event

Every year in May, Saint-Tropez celebrates local produce and gastronomy with the event Les Chefs fêtent les producteurs à Saint-Tropez (Chefs celebrate producers in Saint-Tropez).

This gastronomic event honors local producers, artisans, and chefs. It promotes sharing, authenticity, and the riches of the region.

Each edition features a prestigious patron. Renowned chefs such as Glenn Viel, Arnaud Donckele, and Éric Frechon bring their expertise and fame to the event.
Held in the legendary Place des Lices, the event takes on the atmosphere of a popular festival. Producer stands, entertainment, and meetings punctuate these moments of sharing.

Local products and cooking demonstrations

Among the highlights, the farmers’ market takes center stage. It brings together a wide selection of iconic products from the Gulf of Saint-Tropez and Provence: olive oils, wines, cheeses, honeys, seasonal fruits, and vegetables.

Throughout the weekend, cooking demonstrations and chef battles allow the public to admire the expertise of some of the biggest names in gastronomy. Gourmet competitions, such as the Tropézienne, also highlight creativity and culinary excellence. Finally, a charity lunch brings together many Michelin-starred chefs, combining gastronomy and solidarity.

A celebration of local produce and knowledge sharing

More than just a culinary event, Les Chefs fêtent les producteurs à Saint-Tropez is a moment of conviviality and knowledge sharing. Visitors discover the richness of local produce, talk directly with producers, and learn about more responsible and sustainable eating habits.
