GRANDS JOURS DE BOURGOGNE 2010
The team behind the Grands Jours de Bourgogne event is currently putting the finishing touches to their preparations for this 10th edition of the event. Every effort is being made to ensure that the participants are welcomed under the best possible conditions, and 1100 people have already registered to attend.
Last minute:
- a complete list of exhibitors is now available from the Grands Jours de Bourgogne website, with the dates and events at which it will be possible to meet everyone involved.
- maps and timetables for the free shuttle buses (of which will be a greater number at this year’s event) can be consulted online.
- it is still possible to register for the training workshops which will take place every day before the events begin (the session will be offered in French or English on different days). This will provide a perfect opportunity to brush up on the basics of Burgundy wines.
Invitations for the evening event “Bourgognes et Saveurs du Monde” (Burgundies and Flavours of the World), organised by the Burgundy Wine Board (BIVB), were sent out in mid-February. It will take place on 24 March.
The Grands Jours de Bourgogne wine event is being held with the support of its partners: the Burgundy Wine Board (BIVB), Burgundy Regional Council, Crédit Mutuel, Chef et Sommelier, Côte d’Or and Saône-et-Loire Regional Council.
