Heritage Days 2026 at the Alain Ducasse Coffee Factory: the tour schedule

Heritage Days 2026 are landing at the Alain Ducasse Coffee Factory on September 19 and 20. On the agenda: guided tours for coffee lovers! Book your slot without delay.

If there's one chef who puts the accent on beauty and fine produce, it's Alain Ducasse. Not content with having been rewarded with a string of stars throughout his career, the chef of multi-starred restaurants began inaugurating factories in Paris around ten years ago.

Coffee factory, chocolate factory, ice cream factory, even a delicious cookie factory... There's no doubt about it: if you want to taste exceptional products, Alain Ducasse is the place to go. Speaking of which, how would you like to go behind the scenes of these magical places?

On the occasion of Heritage Days 2026, this coming 19 and 20 September, the two Alain Ducasse chocolate factories open their doors to chocoholics, but also the Manufacture de Café, based in the 11th arrondissement on rue Saint-Sabin. Brown-gold enthusiasts, you’re in for a treat with these guided tours of the Alain Ducasse Coffee Factory.

On arrival, (very good) coffee will hold no secrets for you!
