The objective of this event is to introduce the public to the richness and diversity of parks and gardens and to raise awareness of the actions implemented by the Ministry of Culture and Communication in France.

Every first week of June more than 2,200 gardens and parks throughout the land open their gates and doors offering guided tours, demonstrations of know-how, exhibitions, musical walks, readings and even theatrical events are organised.

It has a different theme every year, last year it was "Garden Music", a theme to evoke the many sounds heard in gardens; birdsong, other animals (frogs, insects, etc...), noises of water, plants, sound installations, music composed for a garden and more. This year it's “stone gardens, garden stones”. Stone will be showcased in all its forms: fountains, waterfalls, bridges, walls, statues, garden furniture, caves, canals, etc.
