The “Repair Café” at the Maison de la Vie Associative de Reims, held one Saturday each month, welcomes everyone to come repair their items (appliances, clothing, furniture) with the help of volunteers. It’s a great event that promotes repair and reuse instead of waste!
Eco-Friendly Events All Year Round:
The Organic and Wellness Fair: held at the Parc des Expositions in March, this fair is dedicated to organic and ethical products. It brings together producers, artisans, wellness experts, and advocates of natural health. A perfect opportunity to discover alternatives to mass-market products and exchange ideas about sustainable practices!
“Reims Goes Green”: also in March, this event focuses on gardening and urban agriculture. It’s a great way to learn new ways to garden sustainably in your favorite city!
“Children of the Earth”: this June festival is aimed at young people and raising awareness about the environment. With creative workshops and fun activities, it helps both kids and adults learn how to respect nature!
“Reims in Transition”: this October festival highlights local initiatives in energy and ecological transition. Conferences, films, exhibitions, and lots of workshops are organized to raise awareness among locals about more sustainable living!
Christmas Market: You might be surprised to see the famous Christmas Market here — and we get it! But if you think about it, it does have an eco-friendly side, with local artisans and creators offering handmade gifts and organic products. In case you forgot, it takes place every December in the city center.
As you can see, there’s plenty to do in Reims… so don’t hesitate to check it out!
