Black Truffle Festival, Aups
Celebrating the wonderful & rather strange truffle of Aups & Verdon
Each year, on the the fourth Sunday in January, the town of Aups hosts a Black Truffle Festival and celebrates all things truffle.
The programme includes a truffle market with other local produce, a truffle hunting demonstration, a truffle dog competition, conferences, book signings, exhibitions around the truffle…and truffle-based menus at all the village’s restaurants.
If you do want to eat at one of the restaurants in this relatively small town then it is worth booking in advance...this is a very popular time of time year for eating out in Aups.
