Top 3 places to enjoy the Lake Annecy festival

The must-see event in Annecy is the Fête du Lac. Imagined by renowned creators, let yourself be carried away by a colourful story, rhythmic music and superb water games on the lake. All this in an exceptional natural setting. Organized every first Saturday of August, the Lake Annecy Festival is one of the biggest fireworks shows in Europe. On this occasion, we propose you our selection of spots to admire the show...

A place of honor in the grandstand :

Installed in the grandstands, facing the board, you will probably have the most beautiful view and the best sound.

Price 35€.

Sitting by the water :

Sitting in the grass, you may be a little less comfortable there, but the show is just as beautiful. You can enjoy a convivial moment with your family or friends. And why not take advantage of it to picnic at the edge of the lake...

Price between 6 and 14€.

An original place :

If you are sporty, escape from the crowd and climb the Mont Veyrier. It's a beautiful 10km hike that will bring you to an incredible view of the lake. Once at the top, you can admire the show in the middle of nature. The only drawback is that you won't have sound...

Price : free.

And to make the most of Annecy, why not discover the city and the lake on a Segway gyro-pod?
