SUMMARY:Le Village de Noël féérique de Saint-Quentin
DESCRIPTION:From 28 November to 27 December 2026, Saint-Quentin hosts its Christmas Village every day from 2.30pm, with 38 chalets on rue Saint-André and the Basilica forecourt, plus a free ice rink, sledging run and Father Christmas's house.\nI am inviting you to Saint-Quentin, which sets up its Christmas Village from 28 November to 27 December 2026. It opens every day from 2.30pm, until 7.30pm from Sunday to Thursday and until 9pm on Fridays and Saturdays.\n\nThe Christmas market fills rue Saint-André and the Basilica forecourt, with 38 chalets and around fifty traders and craftspeople: gift ideas, handmade pieces and treats. Three activities are free: the ice rink in square Winston Churchill, the sledging run on the Basilica forecourt and Father Christmas's house on place de l'Hôtel de Ville. Fairground rides complete the picture, though the source does not give their prices.\n\nOn certain evenings at 5.30pm, parades bring fantastical characters and creatures into the streets: Friday 27 November, then Saturdays 5, 12 and 19 December. From 11 December, a Christmas projection show lights up the façade of the Hôtel de Ville with images and stories, every day from 5.30pm to 9pm and on Saturdays from 6.30pm to 9pm, until 27 December.\n\nI like that you can build your own evening: a few laps on the ice, a wander past the chalets, then the projection show once night falls. For any question, the tourist office answers on 03 23 67 05 00.\nDates: 28 November to 27 December 2026. Opening hours: Sunday to Thursday 2.30pm to 7.30pm, Friday and Saturday 2.30pm to 9pm. Market: rue Saint-André and Basilica forecourt. Free: ice rink (square Winston Churchill), sledging run (Basilica forecourt), Father Christmas's house (place de l'Hôtel de Ville). Projection show: 11 to 27 December. Contact: 03 23 67 05 00.\nRest assured, I can promise sledging even if the snow sulks, since the run is set up on the Basilica forecourt. The ice rink, the sledge run and Father Christmas's house are all free, which leaves your budget for the chalets. I would pick a Friday or Saturday, when the village stays open until 9pm.\nSaint-Quentin Christmas Village 2026, Aisne: dates and hours\nLe Village de Noël féérique de Saint-Quentin (Aisne), 28 November to 27 December 2026 from 2.30pm: 38 chalets, free ice rink and sledging, light show.\nWhen is the Saint-Quentin Christmas Village on?\nFrom 28 November to 27 December 2026, every day from 2.30pm.\nWhat are the opening hours?\nSunday to Thursday from 2.30pm to 7.30pm, Fridays and Saturdays from 2.30pm to 9pm.\nWhat is free of charge?\nThe ice rink in square Winston Churchill, the sledging run on the Basilica forecourt and Father Christmas's house on place de l'Hôtel de Ville.\nWhen is the projection show on the Hôtel de Ville?\nFrom 11 to 27 December, every day from 5.30pm to 9pm and on Saturdays from 6.30pm to 9pm.\nWhen do the evening parades take place?\nAt 5.30pm on Friday 27 November and on Saturdays 5, 12 and 19 December.
