Montgeron Christmas Market

The Montgeron Christmas Village

Every December, the town of Montgeron (91230), nestled on the banks of the Yerres river on the edge of the Sénart forest, transforms its town center into a Christmas village. The Montgeron Christmas Village brings together festive entertainment, artisan exhibitors, and attractions for the whole family in a warm atmosphere. It is one of the most anticipated events of the year for the residents of the commune and its surroundings.

Carousel, Petting Zoo, and Shows

Among the flagship attractions of the Montgeron Christmas village, the carousel turns for the greatest pleasure of children, evoking old-fashioned funfairs. A petting zoo is set up to allow younger children to meet sheep, rabbits, and other farm animals, which are often absent from urban environments. Various shows and entertainment follow one another throughout the weekend: musicians, Christmas storytellers, costumed characters wandering among visitors and creating wonder.

Christmas Crafts and Gastronomy

The chalets of the Christmas village host carefully selected exhibitors, offering original artisanal creations: jewelry, Christmas decorations, wooden toys, fashion accessories, local products, and gourmet specialties. The artisan chocolatier, the mulled wine vendor, and the gingerbread seller are among the must-haves that contribute to the festive and gourmet atmosphere of the market.

Montgeron, between the Yerres and the Sénart Forest

The town of Montgeron, with its approximately 23,000 inhabitants, is one of the most popular residential towns in the south of Essonne. Located on the banks of the Yerres river and in the immediate vicinity of the Sénart forest, it offers a pleasant and green living environment. Its RER D station allows quick access to Paris in less than thirty minutes. The Christmas market benefits from this dynamic to attract visitors from the entire agglomeration.
