Where we deliver in Nîmes
- Arènes de Nîmes
- A Roman amphitheatre in the heart of the city, hosting concerts and ferias: a listed monument whose access and catering rules must be checked with the operator before any reception.
- Musée de la Romanité
- Opposite the Arena, with an auditorium, reception room, exhibition hall and rooftop available to companies: the museum has its own list of caterers, so check the terms for an outside caterer with its venue-hire team.
- Parc des Expositions de Nîmes
- On the southern edge of town, near the Parnasse arena: ask the organiser for the hall, the stand number, the delivery slot and the badge.
We also deliver to offices and unusual venues across the city, in particular Ville Active, Parc Georges Besse, Actiparc Grézan, Actiparc Mitra.
The local constraint that changes the plan
The city centre, known as the Écusson, is largely a pedestrian zone closed off by bollards, and any temporary use of the street requires a permit: a delivery there needs the exact address and access point. During the ferias, the City closes central streets for the festivities, and the slot has to fit the closures it announces.
Who orders in Nîmes
Orders come from logistics and transport firms, the civil protection and risk-management cluster around the airport, aircraft maintenance at the Mitra airport business park, business services, research and technology firms at Parc Georges Besse, as well as the university, the hospital and public bodies across the Gard.
The big dates in Nîmes
- Festival de Nîmes · every June and July
- Concerts inside the Arena: a company inviting clients or staff holds its reception nearby, before or after the show, since the monument has its own access rules.
- Feria de Pentecôte · every year over the Whitsun weekend
- Several days of festivities in the centre: companies hosting clients and staff do so on their own premises or in a hired venue, with streets closed and deliveries to be scheduled early.
- Feria des Vendanges · every September
- The September feria, shorter than the Whitsun one: a key moment to invite clients and partners, with street closures in the centre and a delivery slot to fix in advance.
How a delivery outside Île-de-France works
Everything is composed in Île-de-France and carried in a refrigerated vehicle, with an unbroken cold chain from loading to hand-over. The logistics line covers the real round trip, 1400 km, and appears as its own line on the quote.
For a large event, allow 72 hours between the order and the delivery; for a smaller order, 5 days. Payment is received before the service, as everywhere else: nothing is produced before the funds are in.
