Ham at the post, lamb leg, meringues and dances, here is the program of the 2nd weekend of September in La Broye.

Originally, the Bénichon was a religious feast to thank for all that nature had given and for the harvests of the year. Over time, the religious ceremony disappeared in favour of the popular and gastronomic festival. The menu of Bénichon is the star of the party as well as, particularity of the Broye, the opening of the ball by the youth society.
