At a glance

A friendly Christmas evening under the Lagnes market hall

Every year, the festivities committee of Lagnes holds its Christmas celebration under the village market hall. The event brings together a market of local artisans, school and association stalls, food and entertainment for the whole family.

From 4.30 pm, wander between the stalls with the mulled wine and roasted chestnuts offered by the committee, while children enjoy an afternoon snack offered by the municipality, activities and a photo with Father Christmas.

The evening is hosted by DJ El Conquistador and, for the first time, by the Swingospel trio and their gospel songs. The traditional raffle, with prizes donated by the village’s artisans and shopkeepers, rounds off the programme.
