LES GASCONNADES
In Lectoure, Gascon folk culture is expressed in traditional dances, games and songs on the last weekend of August.
Since 2015, the Gasconnades association has organized a festival dedicated to Gascon culture. The festival kicks off on Friday with dinner and a ball featuring Occitan music groups. Saturday sees the arrival of a number of events: bowling games, béhourd (medieval combat) demonstrations, bilingual storytelling, initiation to Gascon dance... In the evening, a gourmet meal is served under the chestnut trees of the town hall to the sound of Gascon bands. The festival closes on Sunday with a mass in Occitan, celebrated at Lectoure Cathedral.
