Féerie de Noël at the Jardin d’Acclimatation
until 3rd January 2016

The Jardin d’Acclimation in le Bois de Boulogne is like a little theme park for kids, just on the edge of Paris, and this year they are going all out for Xmas with illuminations, a Xmas village, Father Christmas in the flesh, a kids show (in French) called “Where has Father Xmas got to”…

And for the first time the will also have a 400m² ice skating rink, with the French finals of “Ice skaters have got talent” (or something like that), organised by Holiday on Ice on the 2nd December with French figure skating star Philippe Candeloro.

Here’s all the info.
Féerie de Noël au Jardin d'Acclimatation jusqu'au 3 janvier 20162015 is the first time that the 18 hectares of the Jardin d’Acclimatation organise five weeks of seasonal activities to celebrate Xmas.

Every night when the sun goes down (around 5pm) the fairy lights, the phosphorescent arch (??) and multi-coloured lasers are illuminated, there’s a Xmas market, workshops for kids to help them prepare for Xmas (cooking, theatre, model-making…) and from 19th-24th December Father Christmas – the one, the only – will be on-site to have his photo taken with kids and pretend he’ll be bringing them all the plastic toys they’ve seen on TV.

There’s also a 45-minute show (probably better for French-speaking children) about the disappearance of Father Christmas (11€). Dates and times here, tickets here.

And to get the Jardin d’Acclimatation, the simplest way is to go to Porte Maillot and take the adorable little train through the pines from there (leaves from here). Your kids will love you forever.
