Christmas markets in France
Christmas Markets in France, otherwise known as Marché de Noël, provide a great opportunity for a winter weekend break. They exude a fantastic atmosphere and offer great shopping opportunities but with a Gallic flavour – not to mention replenishing wine stocks for the Christmas season. Our list of markets provides just a cross-section. Most towns and cities host a French Christmas Market at some point between late November and the end of December. These French Xmas markets include a few in Paris and one in Lille both of which are particularly popular because of the fast Eurostar connection.
French Christmas markets have much to offer the visitor in terms of the varied ambience depending on which part of France they are located. For example Xmas markets in France in the Alsace region have a Teutonic influence because of their proximity to Germany, particularly Strasbourg.
Please note the information, and dates of the markets, are subject to change.
