Nature Festival 2026: tasting the park's vegetables and free activities at Sausset Park

Looking for a free, educational outing? The Fête de la Nature 2026 runs from May 20 to 25, 2026 across France, with a program designed to reconnect with the living. This 20th edition spotlights living soils, forests, and immersive experiences.

The event specifically targets families, curious children, teachers, walkers and anyone who wants to learn outdoors. It’s less suited for visitors seeking only spectacular or commercial activities. Over these six days, the public can take part in guided walks, observe insects, birds, plants and natural habitats, or meet biodiversity associations and actors. Free to attend, the Festival of Nature helps people better understand the ecosystems near home, in a simple, friendly and open-to-all atmosphere.

Over in Aulnay-sous-Bois, in the department of Seine-Saint-Denis, all the events for the Fête de la Nature take place inside the Parc du Sausset. This park, one of the department’s parks in 93, is the second-largest in Seine-Saint-Denis by area, boasting 200 hectares of greenery!
