Don’t miss the Braves Summer Retreat 2025
From 11 to 16 July, Auvergne hosts the sixth Braves Summer Retreat. A week to come together and share warm, brotherly moments.
By Les Braves

From Friday 11 to Wednesday 16 July, the Braves Summer Retreat 2025 takes place in Auvergne — its sixth edition. The retreat is our yearly gathering: a time to come together and share warm, brotherly moments. Meeting in real life is how the strongest bonds are made.
We have always eaten well there, thanks to members eager to share their culinary specialities, taking turns as head chef. Barbecues come out, and some evenings end with dancing late around a campfire.

Something for everyone
Plenty of activities are on offer:
- arts: singing, dancing;
- sports: hiking, archery, self-defence and survival skills, medieval games, field games;
- and more: business workshop, role-playing and board games, bread and brioche baking.
But the real joy lies in meeting and talking with friends — honest conversations, laughter and smiles. An antidote to gloom.
Prices
The event is very affordable. For 6 days and 5 nights, meals included:
| Option | Price |
|---|---|
| Indoor room (5–6 beds) | €260 |
| Semi-indoor (air bed provided, 3–4 beds) | €230 |
| Tent (bring your own) | €200 |
| Under 3 | free |
| Ages 3 to 15 (accompanied) | €60 |
