The arrondissement of Carpentras was created in 1800.[3] At the January 2017 reorganisation of the arrondissements of Vaucluse, it received 21 communes from the arrondissement of Avignon, and it lost two communes to the arrondissement of Avignon.[4]

  1. Beaumes-de-Venise
  2. Carpentras-Nord
  3. Carpentras-Sud
  4. Malaucène
  5. Mormoiron
  6. Pernes-les-Fontaines
  7. Sault
  8. Vaison-la-Romaine
