The Charity Banquet
On Thursday, June 25, 2026, Provence Tourisme, the Notre-Dame de la Garde Basilica, and the Notre-Dame de la Garde Restaurant invite you to take part in a unique event: The Charity Banquet.
For this special evening, 250 guests will share the same table at one of Marseille’s most iconic venues, under the watchful eye of the Bonne Mère.
The concept is simple: 125 tickets are available for purchase, and each reservation funds a complimentary seat for a guest referred by a partner charity, based on the “suspended dinners” concept.
Opening January 1, 2026
The restaurant will be open for lunch on January 1. We invite you to celebrate the start of the New Year at our table. We look forward to welcoming you to share this convivial moment. Click here to reserve your table
To make sure you're well catered for on this special day, we'll be offering a reduced menu with the chef's suggestions.
Toques Française dinner
The restaurant at the Basilica of Notre Dame de la Garde is honored to welcome more than a dozen chefs from the Toques Françaises' southern Marseille delegation on Monday November 24.
This group of enthusiasts will do their bit and concoct an unforgettable gourmet gala dinner for 130 benefactors to raise funds for the restoration of the Bonne Mère .
The French-style banquet will be served by students and teachers from the Lycée Hôtelier Jean Paul Passédat in Bonneveine.
The chefs will be cooking to a full house, and the dinner is sold out.
