This is an innovative Christmas market, where you can not only do your shopping, but also soak up some culture as you stroll at your own pace through the current exhibition, "Voir la mer"(See theSea). When it comes to gifts, everything is made in France, including natural cosmetics, plant-based groceries, books and adventures, fashion accessories, decorations, jewelry, and food, of course. A furoshiki stand will teach you how to wrap your gifts with fabric on the spot. 

Throughout the Christmas market, you can enjoy several dance performances accompanied by saxophone music, performed by the company "Entre 2 Souffles" in a magical atmosphere, enhanced by the appetizing smells of Christmas cookies, slices of Yule log and homemade gingerbread from SAIN Boulangerie, and the aroma of hot chocolate to be enjoyed in the decorated café of the Maif Social Club.

Amidst seashells, schools of fish, and Christmas wreaths, we head off to discover this original Christmas market and its current exhibition, open from 2 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Friday and from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday.
