The City of Toulon launches the seaside season on June 10 and also honors its Defense Cadets during an official ceremony.

The day of Wednesday June 10, 2026 promises to be an important moment for the city of Toulon, marking both the start of the summer season and recognition of the civic commitment of its youth. The municipal agenda provides for two highlights which will punctuate local life, one focused on the safety of summer visitors and the other towards the promotion of young shoots in the Republic.

Summer security: the surveillance system activated at Mourillon

With the arrival of fine weather and the first strong heat, the safety of swimmers becomes an absolute priority. It is in this context that surveillance of the Mourillon beaches will be officially launched on Wednesday June 10 at 9:30 a.m. The ceremony will be held at the main aid station, symbolizing the deployment of the surveillance and rescue system for the entire summer period.

This official launch marks the beginning of the daily presence of rescue swimmers on one of the most popular seaside sites in the Var. Their mission will be to ensure the safety of the thousands of Toulon residents and tourists who come to enjoy the coastline. This device is essential to prevent the risk of drowning and guarantee a peaceful season for all families.

Committed youth in the spotlight before the Maritime Prefecture

Later in the afternoon, at 4:00 p.m., the focus will be on youth and civic values ​​with the Defense Cadet graduation ceremony. The event will take place in a prestigious and highly symbolic setting for the port city: the square of the Maritime Prefecture.

This national program, carried out in partnership with the armed forces, aims to strengthen the link between youth and National Defense. During their training, these young volunteer middle and high school students discover the military world, participate in sporting and cultural activities, and are made aware of the notions of citizenship, memory and commitment. The presentation of their diploma crowns a year of effort and learning, in the presence of civil and military authorities, thus underlining the importance given by the Nation to the involvement of its youngest members.
