The so-called “Foire d’Eté” (Summer Fair) was celebrated in 1969 for the first time to offer visitors to Valle d’Aosta an overview of local artisan production and an occasion for making purchases.
 
The exhibition includes around 500 exhibitors from the traditional sector, inlay and sculpture in wood and stone, wrought iron, wooden flowers, plus seventy stands presenting more recent productions created in salt paste, dried flowers and fabrics.
 
The Foire has wound around the streets of the historic centre, it is held in August and offers visitors a change to rediscover a large outdoor festival.
