- Christmas markets: to mark the festive season the Champagne-Ardenne is decked out in all its Christmas finery. In towns as well as the smallest of villages Christmas markets spring up with the focus on local specialities. Make the most of this time of year to embark on a tour of the Christmas cribs on display in villages dotted around our vineyards, visit the house of Father Christmas in Sept Saulx, or the Christmas crib museum in Chaumont. From the end of November. More info: www.alanrogers.com/champagne-ardenne
- The splendours of the 16th century: during this period the Champagne region was an important centre for sculpture. The realism of draped folds, facial expression and polychrome work were the distinctive features of this artistic period. Until 25 October, ninety statues from some of the world’s greatest museums such as the Louvre and Metropolitan Museum of New York will be displayed in the St Jean-au-Marché church in the heart of the town of Troyes.
