Égletons Christmas Market

A cozy Christmas market in Corrèze

The Égletons Christmas Market takes place every year in mid-December at the Espace Ventadour (rue Henri Dignac), right in the heart of the town.

The market runs from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM, giving visitors a full day to wander, taste, and finish their holiday shopping.

Local crafts and regional specialties

The market stalls offer a wide variety of goods: Corrèze crafts (wooden items, ceramics, jewelry), regional food products (cheeses, charcuterie, honey, jams, pâtés), confectionery and treats (gingerbread, chocolates, nougats), as well as Christmas decorations and unique gifts. Visitors can also enjoy mulled wine, roasted chestnuts, and other seasonal specialties, all adding to the warm and festive atmosphere of the market.

Entertainment for all ages

The Égletons Christmas Market is about more than just shopping. The Local Committee organizes family-friendly activities throughout the day, including a visit from Santa Claus to greet children and collect their letters, traditional wooden games, artisan demonstrations, and occasionally musical performances or Christmas storytelling. These activities create a friendly atmosphere, allowing families to share a moment of holiday magic.

The market is a cherished part of the year-end celebrations in Corrèze. It offers residents of Égletons and the surrounding areas a chance to gather, complete their Christmas shopping while supporting local artisans, and enjoy a convivial moment in the pleasant setting of the town, beautifully decorated for the holidays.
