The event allows residents and tourists to visit places normally closed to the public. Visits cover craft and creation including lutherie, art binding, glassmaking and textile production. Gastronomy and terroir visits include craft breweries, cideries, chocolate makers, honey producers and canneries. Industry and innovation visits include automated logistics platforms, shipyards and companies engaged in ecological transition.
