The Pont Royal Encounters

Over the years, the “Pont Royal Encounters” have become a not-to-be-missed event for lovers of literature, gastronomy and wine. Hosted by journalist and writer Olivier Barrot, each evening invites you to a unique journey over an exclusive dinner prepared by Michelin-starred Chef Christophe Raoux, and enhanced by prestigious vintages presented by their producers.

After a 2025-2026 season that brought Alice Ferney, Jean-Christophe Rufin, Thierry Frémaux and Vanessa Schneider to our table, the Literary Dinners are ready to turn a new page.

Join us in November for a 2026-2027 season that promises to be richer and more intense than ever.
