Each summer, during the summer holidays, the commune of Épinay-sur-Orge, in the Essonne department, launches l'Îlot Estival, a village of activities designed to keep the holidays engaging. The concept rests on a varied program that brings together municipal services and local associations to offer activities accessible to children, to adolescents, to adults and to families. The activities take place outdoors, in the parc des Templiers, the main site of the event.
The 2026 edition runs in two phases: July 4–26, followed by August 19–28. The site is open Wednesday to Sunday, from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m.. The opening day is scheduled for Saturday, July 4, starting at 4 p.m., with a lineup of activities to kick off the summer season.
Throughout the summer, visitors can take part in sports activities, games, creative workshops, live music performances and leisure moments organized by local associations. The aim is to offer neighborhood-friendly options that allow people to engage in a variety of activities in a natural setting, with no registration required for most events. The program evolves week by week to refresh the activities offered to the public.
From Wednesday through Sunday, 2–7 pm at Parc des Templiers
