Marché de Noël 100% Côte-d'Or
This year, Father Christmas has squeezed in a little stop-off in Dijon! On 12 and 13 December 2026, the Jardins du Département will be decked out in their finest to host the traditional 100% Côte-d’Or Christmas Market. On the programme: tasty treats, local gifts, entertainment and plenty of magic!
When it comes to presents, Father Christmas has some competition! No fewer than 21 producers and craftspeople from the Côte-d’Or region are waiting to help you stock up on lovely treats and unearth a few hidden gems to slip under the tree. Plenty to fill your sack whilst supporting local talent!
And because Christmas isn’t just about presents, there’ll be plenty of entertainment throughout the weekend. Children’s shows, concerts, a Christmas choir, cookery demonstrations, creative workshops and biscuit decorating… There’ll be something to keep young and old alike entertained!
And what about Father Christmas? Don’t worry, he’ll be there with his elves to listen to the children’s wishes and pose for photos.
