Week-end Noel festif à Dijon
A festive Christmas in Dijon:
Your weekend begins with an exploration and a self-guided tour of the historic city centre of Dijon, the capital of Burgundy, decked out in Christmas lights and decorations.
Situated between Paris and Lyon, Dijon has plenty of lovely sights to see, notably its historic city centre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Set off to explore the ‘Chouette’ trail, one of Dijon’s symbols, whilst visiting the Museum of Fine Arts, the Archaeological Museum, the Philippe Le Bon Tower, and more...
Admire the façades of the churches and cathedrals (Sainte-Bénigne, Saint-Michel, Notre-Dame…), museums, mansions and the famous Palace of the Dukes. Dijon’s squares invite you to take a gourmet break in a variety of atmospheres: Place Darcy and its Arc de Triomphe; the majestic Place de la Liberté, with its view of the Palace of the Dukes; the bustling Place de la République; the flower-filled Place Wilson; or the laid-back Place Émile Zola…
The gardens, public parks and fountains provide natural spots to take a breather during your visit. Make the most of your stay to sample Burgundian specialities: crème de cassis, œufs meurettes, parsley ham, mustard, wine, nonnettes, gingerbread and Gaston Gérard chicken...
At the end of the day, head back to your hotel in Dijon or the surrounding area to unwind. At 7.30 pm, let yourself be swept away by a magical evening at the Cabaret Odysséo in Plombières-lès-Dijon, nestled in a peaceful setting on the shores of Lake Kir. You’ll enjoy a refined dinner followed by a spectacular revue in a unique and elegant venue. The evening continues with a convivial dance party to round off this festive occasion in style.
After a restful night at your hotel, enjoy a delicious breakfast before setting off to explore the Cité Internationale de la Gastronomie and let yourself be charmed by the Burgundian way of life.
A complete break combining the magic of Christmas, heritage, fine dining and entertainment – ideal for an exceptional weekend in Burgundy.
