Salon des Métiers d'Art et Artisanats 2026, near Arcachon

The Bassin d'Arcachon's craft and applied arts fair returns for its tenth year at the Parc des Expositions in La Teste-de-Buch. Around one hundred makers, artisans and artists show one-off pieces, limited runs and work in cabinetmaking, metal, ceramics, stained glass, leather goods, weaving, jewellery, upcycling and painting. Every stand invites visitors into a maker's world and a level of skill you won't find in mass-produced goods. The fair welcomes both the general public hunting for singular objects and trade visitors — shops, interior designers, architects and buyers — looking for original, high-quality new lines. Entry and parking are free, food is available on site (artisan crêpes and a rotating line-up of food trucks), and buses Baïa lines 1 and 4 stop at the venue. The site sits right beside the A63, seven minutes from Arcachon, 45 minutes from Bordeaux and 1h30 from Bayonne, so staying in La Teste-de-Buch or Arcachon is the natural choice for a full weekend at the fair. Opening hours are 10:00 to 18:00 on Saturday and Sunday.
