As the holidays approach, Christmas markets in the Marne settle in towns and villages. Illuminated chalets, local artisans, gourmets and decorations: this is the time to enjoy the Christmas atmosphere in Champagne.
Are you looking for a Christmas market near your home for a family outing, a walk with friends or to find some original gifts?
Here are several meetings to discover in the Marne in 2026, from the major markets of Reims and Châlons-en-Champagne to the small village markets.
The great Christmas markets in the Marne in 2026
Reims Christmas Market: November 25 to December 27
The Christmas market in Reims is one of the major end-of-year appointments in the Marne.
Located on the Jean-Louis Schneiter Hautes Promenades and near the Porte de Mars, it hosts many chalets, artisans and gourmet specialities.
You can enjoy the illuminations, get your Christmas gifts and discover the creations offered by the exhibitors.
And if you want to extend your visit, I recommend a detour by La Louve Rémise, a designer shop located on Thiers Street, close to the market exit. In particular, you can find a selection of my Astucier artisanal soaps and cosmetics.

Châlons-en-Champagne Christmas Market: November 27 to December 27
The Châlons-en-Champagne Christmas Market offers a friendly atmosphere in the heart of the city centre.
With its chalets located in Place Foch and rue de la Marne, it is the opportunity to discover craft creations, gourmets and gift ideas.
And this year you can find it!
I will be present with Astucier, my artisanal soap factory installed in the Marne. I will offer my cold-made surgras soaps, vegetable oil treatments, scented candles and gift boxes.
If you come to the market, come and give me a little cuckoo! I'll be happy to introduce you to my work and help you choose your gifts.

Small Christmas markets in the villages of the Marne
It's not just Reims and Châlons to enjoy Christmas!
Many municipalities organise their own Christmas markets, often on a day or a weekend.
I especially like these village meetings: there is a warm atmosphere, local associations, producers and artisans who enjoy presenting their creations.
Here are some dates to remember for 2026:
| Common | Christmas Market Date |
|---|---|
| Aÿ-Champagne | 7 and 8 November |
| Frignicourt | 29 November |
| Courtisols | 6 December, |
| Sarry | 6 December |
| Mourmelon-le-Grand | 11 December |
| Sleepers | 12 December |
The Christmas market of Courtisols usually takes place at the Robert Chaboudé Hall. If you live in the surroundings, it's a great opportunity to enjoy a local outing without necessarily going to a big city. You can also find my products there.
Dates and programs may change. Think about checking with the organizers before you move.
Where can I find all the Marne Christmas markets?
Other Christmas markets are held each year in the villages and communes of the department.
To discover the new dates, animations and events near you, you can consult the official website of tourism in the Marne.
There you will find a regular Christmas festivities calendar.
It's convenient to organize an outing, discover a village or enjoy an artisanal market that you didn't know yet.
Take advantage of the Christmas markets to discover the Marne artisans
Christmas markets are also an opportunity to meet people who manufacture the products you offer.
As an agricultural farmer and soapmaker in the Marne, it is something that I particularly care about.
With Astucier, I transform rapeseed, camline and hemp oils from our farm into soap and cosmetic treatments.
Every soap, every balm tells a little about our work on the farm and in my workshop.
So, if you want to offer locally made artisanal gifts, you can come meet me at the Châlons-en-Champagne Christmas Market, find a selection of my creations in La Louve Rémise or discover my online store Astucier.
A Christmas in the Marne, between traditions and discoveries
Whether you prefer the large illuminated alleys of the Christmas market in Reims, the friendly atmosphere of Châlons-en-Champagne or the small village markets, the Marne offers many opportunities to enjoy the holidays.
And sometimes, the most beautiful discoveries are made on a small craft stand, at the turn of a walk.
I wish you great walks and great Christmas moments in our department!
