As the end of the year approaches, Antibes and Juan-les-Pins<\/strong> continue to celebrate the 2025\u20132026 festive season<\/strong> with a rich programme of events running from 29 December until Sunday, 4 January<\/strong>. Christmas villages, children\u2019s activities, music, entertainment and New Year celebrations offer plenty of opportunities to enjoy the holiday atmosphere until the very last day.<\/p>\n

Christmas villages and activities in Antibes<\/h3>\n

The heart of the celebrations remains the Christmas Village on the Esplanade du Pr\u00e9 des P\u00eacheurs<\/strong>, a safe and welcoming space where visitors can stroll among food and craft chalets<\/strong>, family attractions, wooden games, fairground rides and a large Ferris wheel<\/strong>. The village remains open until 4 January<\/strong>, with extended opening hours on Fridays and Saturdays and special schedules on public holidays.<\/p>\n

Place de Gaulle<\/strong> and Place Nationale<\/strong> also continue to host Christmas markets, food stalls, rides and free workshops for children<\/strong>, making Antibes\u2019 city centre an ideal destination for family outings during the final days of the holidays.<\/p>\n

For a more playful experience, Place des Martyrs de la R\u00e9sistance<\/strong> offers activities such as pedal-powered sulkies<\/strong>, designed for both children and adults.<\/p>\n

Music and entertainment through early January<\/h3>\n

Festive entertainment continues with live music and roaming performances<\/strong>, particularly on weekends and public holidays, right up to 3 and 4 January 2026<\/strong>, when the city will bid farewell to the Christmas season with artistic performances and musical shows.<\/p>\n

Juan-les-Pins: ice skating, the farm and festive lights<\/h3>\n

In Juan-les-Pins<\/strong>, one of the most popular attractions is the ice skating rink<\/strong> set up in Square Jacques Leonetti (Petite Pin\u00e8de)<\/strong>, open until 4 January<\/strong>. Suitable for all ages and free for children under 10, it remains a highlight of the festive season.<\/p>\n

Nearby, families can also enjoy the educational farm<\/strong>, with animals and free pony rides (except on 1 January), a much-loved experience for younger visitors. Food trucks<\/strong> offering snacks and hot drinks are available around the skating rink.<\/p>\n

The Christmas lights<\/strong> continue to illuminate the streets of Antibes and Juan-les-Pins every evening, creating a magical atmosphere until the end of the festive period.<\/p>\n

New Year\u2019s Day in Juan-les-Pins: music and fireworks<\/h3>\n

The highlight of the celebrations will take place on Wednesday, 1 January 2026<\/strong>, in Juan-les-Pins<\/strong>, with a full day of festivities culminating in New Year\u2019s fireworks over the bay at 6:00 pm<\/strong>. The programme also includes a Marching Band<\/strong> in the early afternoon and a colourful teddy bear parade<\/strong>, offering entertainment for all ages.<\/p>\n

The final days of the festive season<\/h3>\n

Until 4 January 2026<\/strong>, Antibes and Juan-les-Pins invite residents and visitors alike to enjoy the last moments of the holiday season, with markets, entertainment, family activities and open-air festivities.<\/p>\n

A perfect opportunity to say goodbye to the festive season at a relaxed pace, strolling among lights and decorations before the return to everyday life in January.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
