Edition 2025 — Marché au Fort

The 2025 edition of Marché au Fort took place on October 11 and 12 in the medieval village of Bard, bringing together over seventy producers of Aosta Valley food and wine, including cheeses, cured meats, wines, honeys, and sweets. With tastings, a refreshment area, historical re-enactments, and folk groups, the event confirmed its role as the main showcase for Aosta Valley flavors.

The Marché au Fort 2025 was held on Saturday, October 11 and Sunday, October 12 in the medieval village of Bard. The event brought together over 70 Aosta Valley producers, offering cheeses (including Fontina DOP), cured meats, meats, wines, honeys, fruits, and traditional sweets. In the town hall square, the refreshment area offered takeaway dishes made with local products.

The event alternated the market with historical re-enactments, performances by folk groups, and guided tours of the Fort of Bard. The "Tessera Punti" (Points Card) from the Chambre Valdôtaine rewarded purchases with a "Buono Prodotti" (Product Voucher) worth 10 euros for every 70 euros spent, while a free shuttle service connected the peripheral parking lots to the event area.
