Saint Peter’s and the Sea Festival

From 05 to 06 July 2025

For 24 years, the town of Cagnes-sur-Mer and the Amicale San Peïre dei Pescadou dou Cros have joined forces to celebrate the Feast of St Peter and the Sea.

Originally, this was the traditional fishermen's festival: on this occasion, they would go to the Chapelle du Cros in procession to pray to Saint Peter to make their fishing more fruitful.
Tradition also dictated that the poorest fisherman's boat would be burnt and the village would contribute to providing him with a new boat, amidst songs, dances and celebrations.

- Take part in free water sports activities all weekend long!
-The ‘ABYSSES’ street art show on the pedestrianised seafront on Saturday evening:
- The sardinade on Sunday evening in Place Saint-Pierre

A moment of wonder and emotion!
Tradition, show and music will all come together to delight the spectators, who will be able to walk along the pedestrianised seafront on Saturday evening.
