Christmas Market in Strasbourg

The 2024 edition of Strasbourg, Capital of Christmas, is themed "The Time to Marvel," embodied by a giant book that promises a magical immersion in Christmas traditions closely tied to tales and stories. This choice clearly resonates with the designation of Strasbourg as the UNESCO World Capital of Books for 2024. Since April 23, 2024, Strasbourg has been celebrating the richness of literature, writing, and the joy of reading.

The city is thus rolling out its "Read Our World" programme, featuring nearly 1,000 events and activities with more than 400 partners, across all neighbourhoods. Strasbourg, Capital of Christmas 2024, is an invitation to (re)discover the city in a dual light: that of the festive illuminations and that of the cultural wealth that stirs the very soul of the city.
