Lyon's markets by day

It is the simple, delicious pleasure of inhaling the scents of summer melons and strawberries, autumn mushrooms, aromatic herbs, and freshly picked flowers, or sampling a morsel of cheese or saucisson by the stall… Perhaps, above all else, it is the pleasure of a shared experience.

Beyond the experience it offers, it is also a sustainable approach in keeping with the times, encouraging shoppers to buy local, fresh and seasonal produce.

There is a market where you can go to fill your basket with fresh farm produce every day of the week in Lyon.
