There is some shelter

Usually you buy your meal tickets for the whole week when signing in. Taizé doesn't encourage staying only for a day, except for adults who just want to get a feeling of the place. On Sunday afternoon the buses come to take back the young people leaving, while late Sunday morning the new youths arrive. That's why you can buy meal tickets for Sunday lunch only, a very good idea. They are 2,50 Euro each. You have to get in line and get your lunch, then take it to some benches or walls, sit down and eat. Just hope it doesn't rain, as there is not too much shelter.The lines for vegetarians are to the very left.
In true Taizé style you get your lunch in plastic dishes, and only a fork and a spoon, no knife (See packing tips).
