Les Mardis Nocturnes D’Uzès

There’s a party going on every Tuesday night right under my window. Les Mardis Nocturnes d’Uzes. I’m not complaining. It’s vendors with jewelry, leather goods, wine, and, of course, there are musicians.

Nothing compares with the Saturday or Wednesday markets in Uzès. Yet these Tuesday events, clearly for tourists, have the added attraction of a nighttime ambiance in the Place des Duche.
