Sporting events and competitions in the Bouches du Rhône

Sporting events and competitions

Long live sport in Provence and the Bouches-du-Rhône! Get ready for 2017 and the 'Marseille European Capital of Sport' year - all the dates are right here in the MyProvence cultural diary!

Get a new angle on Provence with the hundreds of sporting events taking place throughout the Bouches-du-Rhône, including regattas, marathons (the most famous is the Marseille-Cassis), football, rowing, gymnastics, swimming and much more. If you'd like to attend or take part in a sporting event, check out the MyProvence guide. And remember – our national sport is boules, so you'll find plenty of top-level 'pétanque' contests throughout the area. In fact, the 'Mondiale de la Marseillaise (World Pétanque Championship) takes place every year right here in Marseille if you've never seen this sport played!
