Go Christmas shopping in one of the most famous and popular Christmas Markets in France! With multiple markets within walking distance of each other, the Christmas market in Metz is not to be missed. When the days get short and the smells of chestnuts and hot mulled wine fill the air, the city centre is transformed into a Christmas village sure to captivate the crankiest of curmudgeons.

But your day isn't done yet.

Warm back up on the bus while we take you to the Winter Lights festival in Luxembourg! Decorated with more than a mile of lights, Luxembourg’s Christmas Market is a wonder to behold. Old and young alike will be delighted by the range of traditional products on sale, and of course you can also try the treats, delicacies in French, German and Luxembourgish flavors, including everybody’s favorite, Glühwein.

Reserve your space today to brighten up your Christmas season with Army Outdoor Recreation!
