The Mer & Vigne Annecy-le-Vieux fair is a unique showcase of French culinary culture. Held annually at the Espace Rencontre in the charming town of Annecy-le-Vieux, it invites visitors into a world of gastronomic discovery. The name—derived from the French words “Mer” (sea) and “Vigne” (vine)—is more than a title; it reflects the fair’s essence: the celebration of maritime delicacies paired with fine wine.
Organized by the experienced Mer & Vigne SARL, the event has built a strong reputation through high-quality fairs dedicated to French gourmet culture. The timing in autumn is deliberate—when regional products reach their peak and the variety of fresh ingredients is at its richest.
The fair showcases seafood specialties, artisanal products, and a wide selection of French wines. Carefully chosen delicacies from other European regions add a rich international dimension, making the event a meeting point for gourmets and professionals from both France and abroad.
Yet Mer & Vigne is more than just a gourmet fair. It strengthens regional food craftsmanship, supports local producers, and highlights the culinary heritage of Savoy. Competitions and awards honor outstanding achievements in taste, craftsmanship, and innovation.
Exhibitors represent sectors such as fishing, agriculture, winemaking, and artisanal food production. The audience includes professionals from gastronomy, trade, and manufacturing, as well as passionate food enthusiasts seeking unique experiences.
As part of a nationwide event series, Mer & Vigne brings the richness and diversity of French culinary art to various regions, combining strong local ties with broad national appeal.
The Espace Rencontre provides the perfect setting: modern facilities, excellent transport connections, and a location nestled between the Alps and Lake Annecy—an ideal backdrop for a celebration of the senses. Those looking to experience French cuisine in all its depth and excellence will find here a place where quality, authenticity, and passion come together.
The Mer & Vigne takes place annually, and therefore for the 21st time previsibly in October 2026 in Annecy-le-Vieux.
