Calendar of Events in Nice?

Is there an events calendar so I can see if there are any major events in Nice during October?

Yes, www.nicetourisme.com

A listing site is something Nice really needs -there are bits and pieces listed all over the place but no good central listing - the nice tourism website and agencies are rubbish for coming events.





I used to go in to the tourist office and ask about events and every time i knew more about the event than the office staff.





I find out mostly by keeping my eye out for posters in the street and quite a few shops near me tend to have posters for things that are in outlying districts and towns





Plus if i miss something one year i try and keep it in mind for the following year.

I%26#39;ve been looking for such a website as my wife and I go to Nice over Christmas and New Years. When looking for concerts I found this:





http://www.nice-coteazur.org/Culture.





You can click for different types of events.





The site is in French, but with just a bit of effort, you may be able to get what you need.





Good Luck,



Neil

That site doesn%26#39;t actually list all the local events and the subsidiary links are frequently broken or non existent





its ok for opera, theatre and classical music if its run /sponsored by the ville de Nice but it leaves things up that are massively out of date



eg adverts for stuff in April and does not list stuff in small venues or anything not absolutely mainstream
