Since 6 November, the Tuileries Garden has hosted its Christmas market, with food chalets and a funfair, until 8 January 2027. A perfect outing on this 11 November public holiday, about 15 minutes on foot from Hôtel Concortel (estimate).

A Christmas market in the heart of Paris

Between place de la Concorde and the Louvre, the Tuileries Garden fills each winter with chalets and fairground rides. Stroll for mulled wine, a waffle or a small gift, then take a turn on a fairground ride. Entry to the market is free; rides and food are paid for.

When to go?

  • The market runs from 6 November 2026 to 8 January 2027.
  • In November the garden opens from 7.30 am to 7.30 pm; it is cleared 30 minutes before closing. Chalet hours may differ: check before you go.
  • At nightfall, around 5 pm, the lights make the market especially charming.

Today, 11 November

Wednesday is a public holiday: the Armistice commemoration takes place at the Arc de Triomphe, which is closed in the morning. During past commemorations, several stations near the Champs-Élysées, including Champs-Élysées–Clemenceau, were closed: walking is the easiest way to reach the Tuileries.

How to get there from the hotel?

On foot, head to the Madeleine, then down rue Royale to place de la Concorde: the garden entrance is right opposite, about 15 minutes away (estimate). Find the Tuileries on our illustrated map and extend your stroll with our Madeleine to Tuileries walk.
