FRENCH MICE EVENT

AN EVENING WITH MONET IN AMSTERDAM

Take Life Beyond©Jules Despretz

It has been a while since we shone the spotlight on possible MICE initiatives in France and we would like to invite you to rekindle our connection and start anew! At Atout France, we are constantly looking to provide you with the best that France has to offer for your clients’ MICE events. With this in mind, we take this opportunity to invite you to our upcoming event around exciting MICE opportunities in France!

Claude Monet was a great artist and formidable influencer of his time, known for introducing the very popular art movement: impressionism. In 2026, France will pay homage to his 100^th year of passing. To celebrate the remarkable contribution of this artist, major events will take place in Normandy and Paris Region. As you may know, Monet also spent some time in the Netherlands and we are particularly fond of his “Tulip fields near the Hague” with a windmill in the background but our true favorite is the “Houses by the bank of the river Zaan.

On November 27^th, in Amsterdam, from 15:45 to 20:00, we invite you to join us on a Claude Monet journey that begins with a visit in Westerpark of La Fabrique des Lumières with a show dedicated to Monet’s paintings, then we enter Monet’s kitchen and prepare “la cuisine des fleurs”. A chance for you to showcase your talent as a Chef ! It will of course be the occasion for you to meet on a one-to-one basis with our French delegates and spend a qualitative yet fun filled evening with us and get inspired for some MICE projects in France.
