Périgueux Christmas Market

The Christmas Village in the heart of Périgueux

Each year, from late November to early January, the Périgueux Christmas Village is set up at the foot of the majestic Saint-Front Cathedral, transforming the historic center into a magical setting. With its 31 wooden chalets, sparkling illuminations, and warm atmosphere, the market has become an unmissable event for the holiday season in Dordogne.

Crafts and delicacies from Périgord

The chalets host artisans and local producers offering original gift ideas, Christmas decorations, gourmet specialties from Périgord, and hot drinks. Mulled wine, roasted chestnuts, foie gras, artisanal chocolate: the flavors of Christmas are all there.

Activities and ice rink

The Christmas Village offers numerous activities for all ages: an outdoor ice rink, carriage rides, creative workshops, street performances, and meetings with Santa Claus. The illuminations of the Saint-Front Cathedral and the streets of the city center create a magical atmosphere.

A festive and family event

Open every day for over a month, the Périgueux Christmas Market is a time for sharing and conviviality, ideal for outings with family or friends.
