Right in the heart of the bustling Villette district, you’ll soon be able to find the district’s first Christmas market. From November 23 to December 29, more than 30 chalets will be set up on the Place de la Fontaine aux Lions, and there will be countless activities throughout the event. We look forward to seeing you in the north-east of Paris to discover all these wonderful surprises.
La Villette’s first Christmas village opens soon
As the month of October draws to a close, it’s already time to turn our attention to the magic of Christmas! Little by little, the whole city will get into the spirit, and we’ll be able to enjoy a multitude of enchanting activities in all four corners of the city. And among these, strolling through the ephemeral markets is one of our favorite activities. And on this theme, we welcome a newcomer to Paris, the very first Village de Noël de la Villette!
Among all the surprises to be expected, there will be a host of beautiful decorations and lighting installations. In the 30 chalets dotted around the fountain, you’ll also find plenty of comforting treats, as well as products from artisans carefully chosen for the occasion.
And beyond the culinary delights, a myriad of activities is in store. Santa’s Chalet, ski simulator, skating rink, climbing wall: there’s plenty to keep you entertained, as well as cultural and festive highlights. On December 7, for example, a magnificent lantern parade will put stars in everyone’s eyes.
All in all, there’s a whole host of surprises in store for this brilliant Christmas market!
