Semaine Bleue senior appreciation in France

Overview

The 2026 edition of Semaine Bleue, a national week in France dedicated to retirees and seniors, is scheduled from September 28 to October 14. The theme, “Relions tous les âges dans des territoires engagés!” (Let's connect all ages in engaged territories!), emphasizes intergenerational links and the contributions of older adults.

Various municipalities have organized local programs to support the initiative. In Alfortville, activities focus on cultural and prevention-based meetings, while Caveirac and Miribel have scheduled workshops ranging from fall prevention and road safety to digital café sessions and chair yoga.

As the event progresses, municipalities such as Coulounieix-Chamiers and Canteleu are implementing specific programs to promote well-being and social connection. In Coulounieix-Chamiers, which holds an ‘Age-Friendly City’ designation, activities include intergenerational hikes and shared meals. Canteleu has organized diverse sessions including theater, virtual reality, and adaptive cycling to promote autonomy and conviviality.
