 Folklore and fun |
Place du Monastère de Cimiez (Jardins des Arènes de Cimiez) Nice 6000 France |
Originally created to celebrate the rebirth of nature and honour the earth goddess, this pagan festival, like many others, has gradually become a popular event. Events take place on May 1st, and on every Sunday and public holiday in May, in the Jardins et Arts de Cimiez. Folklore groups bring out their costumes and strike up their songs, and Nice's culinary specialities are there for the sampling. The traditional bal musette?a popular dance accompanied by the accordion is one of the crowd favourites. Games and archery are organized for the kids. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Jazz Greats in the Open Air |
Boulevard de Cimiez (Arènes de Cimiez) Nice 6000 France +33 1 47 23 07 58 http://www.nicejazzfest.com/ |
The biggest names in jazz have been performing here amid the olive groves in the magnificent Arènes et Jardins de Cimiez since 1948: James Brown, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Didier Lockwood, Maceo Parker, Claude Nougaro, Lou Reed, Chick Corea and Martial Solal, to name but a few. The infectious atmosphere spreads to a selection of private venues during the festival, as jazz takes over the beaches and nightclubs. Don't miss the jam sessions at the Radisson. Tickets are available from FNAC or on-site. Review © 2007, Wcities |
