All Saints' Day holidays kick off this Saturday, and Seine-et-Marne (77) has plenty to keep you busy this first weekend. For the weekend of October 17–18, 2026, we’ve gathered ten outings spotted during our rambles across the department, from Brie to the Fontainebleau Forest.
The eye-catching novelty is in Lumigny: for its 20th anniversary, Lumigny Safari Reserve has been lighting up a new nocturnal lantern route since October 15, filled with marine creatures and fantastical beings. Bargain hunters, meanwhile, are headed to Saint-Augustin for the 50th Apple Festival, or to Souppes-sur-Loing for its grand brocante. On Saturday, the National Architecture Days will also open the gates to the Maison des artistes in Couilly-Pont-aux-Dames, a venue rarely open to the public.
On the weather front, Saturday is expected to be dry, while Sunday will be noticeably cooler, with a few showers possible according to Météo-France. That leaves room to plan around the exhibition Le panache des Lumières at the Château de Fontainebleau, or the Halloween festivities Halloween à Disneyland Paris, which run through November 1.
