Le Touquet's most enchanting season
Every winter, Le Touquet-Paris-Plage reinvents itself as one of northern France's most atmospheric Christmas destinations. For over five weeks — from late November right through to the first days of the new year — the resort wraps itself in lights, music and the smell of mulled wine, drawing families and couples from across France and beyond.
What's on: five weeks of festive highlights
The programme turns the entire resort into an open-air stage. Here are the standout elements to look forward to:
- A fairy-tale trail weaving through illuminated fantasy kingdoms — a delight for children and adults alike.
- The grand Christmas parade, a crowd-pulling spectacle that brings the whole town together.
- An ice rink and a toboggan run — no snow needed to create genuine winter thrills by the sea.
- The "Village des Enfants Sages" (Good Children's Village) with rides, workshops and character encounters for the little ones.
- Artisan and gourmet chalets offering handmade gifts, seasonal treats and local specialities — perfect for last-minute Christmas shopping.
- Family shows to round off the evenings on a high note.
