Var Summer Festivals
 The Var – heart of Provence – stretching from Toulon and St. Tropez to the Lac St. Croix and the Gorges de Verdon – is waiting to welcome holiday makers with open arms!
There is such a gallimaufry of events to choose from, you need a guide – everything from Hard rock, to Jazz, to pop, to classical concerts, chamber music, baroque, choirs and theatre events and art shows, happening in every corner of the Var – on the beach, on the quai sides, in the hills, in all the lovely “theatre de verdure” with which the Var abounds, in many village churches and in loads of the superb vineyards.
What better way to spend your holiday but by spoiling yourself of a wonderful balmy summer's evening, listening to great music – jazz or baroque – with a glass of the Var's superb chilled rose wine in hand – It doesn't get better than this!
