The Champs-Élysées Christmas market is coming back. Its last edition was in 2016; the City of Paris ended it the following year, calling it mediocre and too commercial. From 22 November 2026 to 4 January 2027, wooden chalets return to the lower part of the avenue, between the Obelisk on Place de la Concorde and the Rond-Point des Champs-Élysées.

This time the Comité Champs-Élysées (the avenue's business association) runs it, with the Nantes-based company 2A Organisation. The promise is a return to tradition: quality products, organic, prepared on site and tied to the holiday season. The city's Christmas market charter applies.

You walk under the avenue's Christmas lights with a cup of vin chaud (mulled wine), between Concorde and the Théâtre Marigny. Entry is free, as on any pavement.

Not announced yet: the number of chalets, the list of stallholders, opening hours and entertainment. This page will be updated as soon as the organisers publish them. Until then, note the opening day: Sunday 22 November.
