On Saturday, December 7th, our annual Marché de Noël returns to Boston's Back Bay!
In 1570, the first Marché de Noël took place in Strasbourg which makes this tradition over 440 years old! Today in France every big city has its own Marché de Noël bringing together artists and artisans selling unique holiday gifts.
For the 12th time, we are delighted to share this tradition with the greater Boston community. This Saturday, 16 French boutiques and artists will display their merchandise inside our Center to give you the opportunity to find the perfect gifts with a French style for everybody on your list!
While you stroll among the stands admiring books at Schoenhof's Foreign Books or silk scarves from Your French Gift, enjoy a complimentary glass of mulled wine or hot cider and taste some French specialties. A gauffre from Zinneken's maybe?
Once you arrive, make sure you sign up for our raffle for a chance to win a variety of prizes kindly donated by our vendors. And for those of you who sign up for a membership at the event, you will be entered in an additional raffle.
