The Rencontres Raymond Abellio began in 2004 as "Rencontres de Seix", from the name of the pyrenean village where Abellio's mother family had its roots. The meetings have most often
taken place in that environment, but also in various other places: Porto, Portugal (2010, 2015), Montréal, Québec, Canada (2012), Toulouse, France (2018, 2019, 2020).
The sessions usually run for 2 days, offering communications on scientific, literary, philosophical and artistic themes, and active discussions as well.
The "Rencontres" are organized by Association Raymond Abellio de Recherches et Études (ARARE), a non-profit association based in the Paris region.
