Gourmet Weekend at Palais Rameau – Junia, Lille: Postponed

Due to demonstrations planned for this weekend, and following recommendations from the public authorities, the events scheduled for Saturday and Sunday at Palais Rameau – Junia have been postponed.

We were all looking forward to this foodie weekend, with so many chefs from across the Lille Metropolitan Area joining forces alongside Marc MEURIN, patron of this first edition. But the safety of visitors, participants and event teams must always come first.

All the event partners are now working together to find a new date, so this celebration of gastronomy can take place in the best possible conditions.

Still hungry for something special? There’s one last chance to enjoy an exceptional dining experience: a few places are still available for Friday evening’s banquet! And you can still treat yourself at the restaurants taking part in the Restaurant Fortnight until 31 October.
