The CyberTour de France 2026 is a nationwide event designed to educate people about digital threats and how to stay safe online. Organized by Cybermalveillance.gouv.fr, a French government agency focused on cybersecurity, the tour will run from October 1st to November 4th. It will take place in six different cities across France, with the goal of raising awareness among professionals, young people, and the general public. The initiative is being supported by local authorities, Cyber Campuses—regional centers for digital education—and various partners.
The tour begins in Biarritz on October 1st, where the Cybermonth 2026 will officially launch. The event will be held at the Bellevue convention center alongside the Cyber Campus Nouvelle-Aquitaine. The day will include conferences for professionals discussing current cybersecurity challenges, followed by a public session featuring the screening of the film Don't Go To The Police, which highlights the dangers of digital crime, and a session aimed at increasing public awareness of online risks.
On October 6th, the CyberTour will take place in Rennes Métropole, from 1:30 pm to 6:00 pm. This event will mark the start of Cybermonth in the Rennes area and will involve over fifty partners. The day will include various activities such as sensitization sessions, workshops, and interactive games to help attendees better understand digital risks and how to respond to them. Local officials, including Yann Huaumé and Jérôme Tré-Hardy, will be present to welcome participants.
On October 9th, the CyberTour will have two simultaneous stops. In Lille, the city hall and the Cyber Campus Hauts-de-France will host an event aimed at raising awareness among young people. Students will attend one-hour workshops and games focused on various cybersecurity topics. The event will be organized in collaboration with the Advens Foundation, La Plateforme_, and the teams of the City of Lille. At the same time, in Rouen, the CyberTour will take place at Seine Innopolis, targeting middle school, high school, and university students.

The CyberTour will continue on October 13th in Montpellier, where the Metropolis and its partners will host the third edition of the Cybersecurity Meetings at the Halle de l'innovation. This event will focus on professionals in the region, providing updates on current events and regulatory requirements, as well as presenting practical solutions to help businesses stay secure. Discussions will also explore the future of cybersecurity, including the impact of artificial intelligence and quantum computing on digital security.
