Foire Saint-Denis de Dreux

Looking back at the 846th Foire Saint-Denis (2025)

On October 4th and 5th, 2025, Dreux celebrated the 846th edition of its famous Foire Saint-Denis, with Morocco as the guest of honor. For two days, the town center came alive with Moroccan colors, flavors, and music, skillfully blending Dreux tradition with cultural openness.

The car boot sale, in Place du Musée, hosted dozens of individual exhibitors from 10:30 am to 7 pm on Saturday and from 10:30 am to 6:30 pm on Sunday. The street sale by local traders, the gourmet and artisanal village with its food trucks and restaurateurs, and the large funfair made up a rich and varied program. The free miniature train toured the town center for the enjoyment of young and old alike. Street shows and artistic parades punctuated these two festive days, true to the family-friendly and convivial spirit that has characterized this emblematic fair of Eure-et-Loir for over eight centuries.
