Le Marché de Noël

At The French Library Get Directions

Join us for our 15th annual Marché de Noël! Inspired by the holiday markets in France, this event is a beloved tradition for the hundreds of people who attend each year. Enjoy an authentic French holiday experience as you stroll through our 1860s Beaux Arts-style mansion decorated in seasonal splendor, sip on complimentary mulled wine or hot cider and browse the beautiful wares and festive foods offered by our merchants and artisans.
