L'Aiòli was a Provençal newspaper founded by Frédéric Mistral in 1891 to defend and promote Occitan languages and literature, as part of the Félibrige movement.[1] The name comes from a famous Provençal dish, aïoli.

It was published in Avignon and published three issues monthly.[2]

It closed in 1899 after a total of 324 issues had been published.
