This year was no exception to the rule with the actress Charlotte Gainsbourg as mistress of ceremonies. Until January 10, tourists and Parisians can see 415 trees illuminated fuchsia (after the European Blue last year), Place de l’Etoile to the Place de la Concorde.
As a bonus, many activities are offered throughout the month of December on the Champs-Elysees: exhibition “Ice Magic” (ice sculptures), Christmas market with traditional wooden chalets and the famous Ferris wheel, instead of Concorde.

Ferris Wheel – until December 30th. Daily from 10.30am to midnight. 10€ for adults, 5€ for children (free for children under 3 years-old).
