Zone C, Saint-Louis water jousts, and férias

In Occitanie, winter and spring school breaks are aligned with Zone C (académies of Toulouse and Montpellier), shared with the Paris region. The region celebrates distinctive southern and Mediterranean traditions.
In Sète, the Saint-Louis festival in August features historic water jousting tournaments along the royal canal, while Nîmes and Béziers celebrate grand seasonal férias.
