Presentation
Rendez-vous from Friday the 6th to Monday the 9th of September 2013
for the most beautiful landscaping event on the Riviera: “Rencontre de
Jardins”, in Gassin in the heart of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez.
In the entirely vegetal park of the Derbez Nurseries, on more than
33,000m2, this 9th annual fair is growing and will give place of honour
to the innovations and new creations of the 200 exhibiters divided
amongst the theme villages.
This fair will guide you in the development of your outdoor spaces,
from vegetal décor to outdoor furniture, all while integrating design
and ecology, in order to participate in the protection of the
environment and discover the trends towards a new way of life.
ABOUT US
The most beautiful landscaping event on the Riviera…
The garden fair “Rencontre de Jardins”, which started in 2005 with a
family of 35 exhibitors on 5000m2 of exhibition space, has become a
benchmark in the south of France in the fields of gardening, exterior
design and layout, and the Environment.
oing way beyond just its regional setting, our event today brings
together more than 200 exhibitors on a specially arranged park of over
33,000m2. Indeed, through the rigorous selection process and the quality
of our exhibitors with their spectacular presentations, our fair has
distinguished itself and we have, since two years ago, gone beyond
10,000 visitors to reach 14,000 visitors in 2012, a 20% increase over
2011.
The “Professionals’ Day” at the fair, followed by its late evening
opening, beat all the records of the previous year. More than 5000
professionals made the trip and in great numbers they participated in
the evening opening devoted to them on the first day and enjoyed the
cocktails offered at each stand by the exhibitors. 9000 private
individuals came to our fair, a quality clientele, ever more concerned
about the environment and the beauty of their outdoor spaces.
Conferences, workshops, garden creation competitions and diverse activities are on the programme, so don’t miss this event!
PRESS RELEASE
What’s new and the 2013 theme : Gardens go head over heels …
Even if it is now agreed that the garden is a veritable living space,
today a new dimension is opening as regards the exterior. In 2013, the
garden will become lighter, aerial, floating and hanging. Just raising
your eyes to the sky raises the spirit and brings on new perspectives
bubbling with creativity and poetry …
