Planning a company event in Provence
Inland Provence works for a team that wants to leave the city behind: a country estate in the Luberon or the Alpilles, sessions under the plane trees and dinners in a village square. Avignon and Aix keep the TGV and the city hotels close at hand.
When to go
April to June and September to October are the best months for outdoor sessions. In July, the Avignon festival fills the city and its surroundings, and August is the peak holiday month. Winter is quiet and some estates close, but it is truffle season, which suits a small group.
Getting the team there
The TGV reaches Avignon TGV and Aix-en-Provence TGV from Paris, and Marseille Provence airport has flights from many European cities. Estates in the Luberon and the Alpilles are reached by road, so book a coach that suits narrow village lanes.
Estates in the country
Many mas, bastides and wine estates have been turned into country hotels with a meeting room, a dining room and bedrooms for a group. A smaller team can often take the whole property; larger groups stay in Avignon or Aix and come out to an estate for the day.
Activities with local roots
Wine tastings in the Luberon, the Alpilles and Châteauneuf-du-Pape, visits to olive oil mills, Provençal cooking classes and pétanque on a village square are easy to add. Cyclists can ride the lanes of the Alpilles or take on Mont Ventoux.

What kinds of venues are listed in Provence?
38 hotels, 26 estates, 12 wineries, 11 castles, 6 event spaces, 4 historic houses, and 1 restaurant.
How are these venues chosen and ordered?
By documented renown first, then by how fully each venue is documented (photographs, rooms, capacities), never by payment: venues do not pay to appear and the guide takes no commission. How we select venues.
Where to hold an offsite in the Luberon or the Alpilles?
In a country estate or bastide with rooms, near villages such as Gordes, Lourmarin, Saint-Rémy-de-Provence or Eygalières. Smaller groups can take the whole property; larger ones often stay in Avignon or Aix and meet at an estate during the day.
How do you get a team to inland Provence?
By TGV from Paris to Avignon or Aix-en-Provence, or by air to Marseille Provence. There is no train into the Luberon or the Alpilles, so plan a coach transfer from the station or airport.
What team activities are typical of Provence?
Wine tastings in local appellations, olive oil mill visits, cooking classes with market produce, pétanque tournaments and bike rides in the Alpilles or on Mont Ventoux. In winter, truffle hunts and tastings make a good theme for a small group.
