Those who own French property could find themselves spoilt for choice over the number of festivals and events set to take place in the country this autumn.

All through November, those with French property who have an interest in culture could head to the Festival d’Automne in Paris, which is set to feature ballet, film, music and opera.

Also in November, the 10th biennial Contemporary Art Fair is being held in Lyon.

Foodies with French property could be interesting in visiting the International Gastronomic Fair in Dijon, which France Guide noted is due to attract more than 560 exhibitors and around 200,000 visitors.

The food fair is due to run from the beginning of November to the 11th and could be a great chance for Brits to stock up the cupboards of their France property before Christmas.

France was recently voted the best place to live in Europe, according to a survey from USwitch.
