- Participate in round tables;
- Participate in the construction of the regional network of archaeology by taking part in the collaborative workshop;
- Go to meet the actors of archaeology throughout the forum;
- Discover the exhibitions of the Narbo Via Museum through guided tours;
- Attend conferences
