Saturday Trokids is a series of creative workshops for children, held every Saturday at Halle Tropisme in Montpellier, in the Occitania region of southern France. It suits families looking for an active, hands-on morning or afternoon out with young children.
What the sessions involve
Each Saturday offers playful art-based activities designed for children. The programme is built around making things, and the range of activities includes:
- cooking
- photography
- DIY crafts
- embroidery
- other surprises that change from week to week
Because the workshops are varied, a family who comes back on different Saturdays may find a different activity each time.
The venue and the area
The workshops take place at Halle Tropisme, a venue in Montpellier. Montpellier is a university city on the Mediterranean coast, with a lively old centre and a compact layout that makes it easy to combine a workshop with a walk, a meal or time by the sea. For full details on the current programme and how to take part, the organiser's agenda page for the Saturday Trokids sessions is the best place to check before you go.
Is it right for you?
Saturday Trokids is a good fit if you are travelling with children and want something structured, creative and specific to the place you are visiting. Since the activities change, it is also worth looking at the listing ahead of time to see what is planned for the Saturday you have in mind.
