Vic-Fezensac


Vic-Fezensac is a commune in the Gers department in the Occitanie region of Southwestern France. In 2017, it had a population of 3,474.

The Auzoue flows north through the western part of the commune and forms most of its north-western border.

The Osse flows north through the middle of the commune and crosses the town.

Vic-Fezensac is one of the last towns in France which still showcases bullfighting. The main feria takes place over the Pentecost weekend. On this occasion tens of thousands of people gather all night long over the weekend in the tiny streets of the city. It is the first big "feria" of the year in Southwestern France. Small bodegas crowded with people are open until the morning comes, "bandas" (bands of popular Basque or Gascon music) goes on the streets.
At the end of July the Tempo Latino salsa festival takes place. Night markets are also held in summer.
