When to go?
The Languedoc benefits from 300 days of sunshine a year, so is an attractive destination all year round. July tends to be the hottest month, coinciding with the music and arts festival, much of which is free and held in the heart of town. The Bastille Day fireworks in the middle of the month are spectacular. Other notable events include the Spanish week at the end of August, the wine festivals in May and October and the Christmas fair in December. May and June are usually sunny and less crowded, as is September and October.
