The Collectivité will entertain the waterfront in Marigot

Cultural and traditional events

Marigot Food boulevard by night
The second event will be the organization of the “Marigot Food boulevard by night”, which as the name suggests, will be to allow street vendors at night on the waterfront every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 3 pm to 10 pm.

The road running along the market on the sea side between the tourism market and the Mini-Club restaurant will be closed to traffic from 2 pm to 10 pm on the days of the events, and will be affected to businesses that are not sedentary.
Date of the event
According to the original schedule, these events must be held until December 31st and were due to begin on the 17th of February.
Cost of the events
Both of these events represent a total cost of 439,200 euros, of which 15% will be financed by the Collectivité (65,880 euros). It must seek the co-financing of FEDER European funds in the amount of 373,320 euros.
