What We Do
Promoting French Culture
We proudly represent French culture in Oxford and thus host many different events to share with as many as possible. A great example is our Wine Tasting of fine wines produced by people we know. (Picture: our very fine Digestif Tasting.)
Social Events
We organise a wide variety of social events to connect with people from Oxford and the entire UK! Those include casual parties, black tie occasions, events with other societies (such as Cambridge's French Society), and many others. (Picture: the infamous European Night!)
Guest Speakers
We often offer speaker events with invited speakers that are influential figures in France and in the world, ranging from politicians to scientists. Our past guests include people such as Gaspard Koenig, or Jean-Pierre Vidal.
“The best society of Oxford by far. I can't believe it exists. Baguette croissant vin fromage.”
Many people… and soon you
