Based near Place de Clichy, the event, part of the OFF program of Montmartre’s Harvest Festival, pays homage to utopian philosopher Charles Fourier and to Franck Scurti’s sculpture La Quatrième Pomme.

The apple is making its rounds on every street corner: to taste, to drink, to cook with, to tell stories…From 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., the Apple Village hosts a producer and creator market. Throughout the day, food trucks and a beverage stall offer apple-themed menus, local drinks and encounters with the artisans.

A playful and educational journey across five stops, The Apple Odyssey, also welcomes families from 12:00 to 18:00, amid a tasting session of delicious apple pies, for which you are warmly invited to cook and share your recipe with others!
