A special time to get together with the family, Easter is also an opportunity to take advantage of an extended weekend to discover the city, go egg hunting, share unique moments and rediscover the delicacies specially created by our artisans!

Local delicacies

Treat your taste buds!

For Easter, indulge yourself with the products of our artisan chocolatiers, the flavours of candied fruit from our producers or our traditional nougats!

Expert advice!

And why not let yourself be tempted by “papaline”, THE Avignon specialty? This confection, coated in two layers of chocolate, looks like a thistle and is flavored with Comtat liqueur. Visit Aline Géhant to be surprised by this delicious sweet.
