Imagine a very long table stretching out over the vineyards of Salgesch, the last rays of sunlight streaking across the landscape and 350 guests chatting happily with their neighbors. It was in this unique setting that the 6th edition of the Nature Park Tavolata took place on Saturday, August 23. The sold-out event offered conviviality, musical entertainment and a regional 6-course menu, accompanied by matching wines.
A logistical masterpiece
A tavolata thrives on ambience. That's why it can only be held in suitable weather conditions. The event had to be canceled after Corona due to the weather. Every year, however, the organizers face a logistical challenge: setting up and covering 120 metres of tables, a mobile kitchen, a reception area for the aperitif, fairy lights and much more.
Les Vins du Valais
The "Les Vins du Valais" association generously supports the Valais Tavolatas by providing a free, simple and efficient ticketing system and promoting each event on its website.
