High Season

From June to August, Nice experiences its high season, defined by hot, dry weather and average temperatures reaching 27°C. The city buzzes with activity as sunny days draw crowds to the pebble beaches and the Promenade des Anglais. Upon arrival, visitors find Nice alive with a lively energy; restaurants and cafés extend onto pavements, and the Old Town's narrow streets are bustling late into the evening.

During these warmer months, outdoor life takes centre stage. The Fête de la Musique in June fills the city with free concerts, and the Nice Jazz Festival in July attracts international performers. Daily life revolves around the sea and al fresco dining, creating a festive atmosphere that defines Nice's summer identity.

Low Season

The low season, typically from November to March, brings cooler temperatures, averaging around 13°C, and occasional rainfall.

Nice transforms into a cultural hub during these months. The iconic Nice Carnival, held in February, is a major highlight, filling the streets with parades and elaborate floats.
