St Nicholas’ Market: a festive and friendly day out!
This year, the St Nicholas Market is taking on a new format and welcomes you on Saturday 5 December, from 10.00 am to 6.00 pm, at the Rival sports hall in Colombelles, for a whole day filled with the magic of Christmas.
Numerous local craftspeople, stallholders, organisations and local businesses will be there to showcase their creations and expertise: jewellery, accessories, Christmas decorations, wooden items, handmade candles, textile creations, floral arrangements, honey and gourmet treats. A wonderful opportunity to find original gift ideas to slip under the Christmas tree!
Throughout the day, young and old alike can enjoy a range of entertainment:
- 11.15 am: concert by the SIVOM.
- From 12 noon: jugglers and stilt-walkers from the Cirque en Spray troupe.
- 2.15 pm: concert by the SMN Harmony Band.
- From 2 pm to 6 pm: meet Father Christmas, Mother Christmas and Olaf.
- All afternoon: batucada with Les Fêlés de la Caisse, jugglers and stilt-walkers.
Creative workshops, board games, large wooden games, face painting, a photo booth, writing letters to Father Christmas and Christmas craft activities will also round off the programme.
A major new feature this year: you can now have lunch right at the market! Boucherie Yonnet will be serving hot dishes (tripe and baby potatoes or chicken and merguez couscous), as well as rice pudding. Crêpes, waffles, candyfloss, hot drinks and other treats will also be on offer.
Numerous partners and organisations will be taking part in the day’s events, including the Le Phénix media library, Les Francas, Les Amis de la Tour, the twinning committee, Être & Jouer and many others.
Do come along in large numbers to enjoy this festive day, discover local talent, get your Christmas presents sorted, grab a bite to eat on the spot and share a lovely time with your family!
