This was to be expected but the news was made official this Thursday by the city of Caen the day after the head of state’s announcements confirming the national reconfinement. Great Christmas market in the Place Saint Sauveur in Caen will not take place this year. No mulled wine, no chalets, no exhibitors (there were about fifty last year). The health crisis got the better of the event. The other markets in the city center (boulevard du maréchal Leclerc) as well as that of the Rives de l’Orne are also canceled. The animations traditionally started at the end of November. However, the country will still be in confinement, scheduled to last until December 1 “at a minimum” Emmanuel Macron said on Wednesday evening on television.
