A Christmas in Royan

The Christmas spirit once again invades the city of Royan du Friday, December 6, 2024 to Sunday, January 5, 2025. From Place Charles de Gaulle to the Kerimel de Kerveno esplanade, a lively village of 4 hectares offers a multitude of original activities. We stroll on the traditional Christmas market and in the different themed gardens to the sound of Christmas carols. We find our inner child on the toboggan run and enjoy the many attractions for young and old. After so many emotions, Santa Claus is quietly waiting for us in his sleigh near the enchanted labyrinth. At nightfall, we then witness the illuminations of the city and its tree.
