It's one of our favorite Christmas traditions: the Advent calendar. Every day, from December 1 onwards, we open a new square in our calendar to find a treat, a little gift, something to tide us over until Santa Claus officially arrives.
And as we get older, so does the choice! While purists keep their chocolate calendar, the more daring will be tempted by a naughty Advent calendar, a beer calendar , a beauty calendar , cheeses, teas...
This year, we're taking you off the beaten track! Discover the Sortiraparis 2023 Advent calendar: 24 outings to try out during the month of December, 24 ideas for activities to enjoy alone, with family or friends, every day of the festive season!
Exhibitions, concerts, Christmas markets, walks, restaurants, sports or movie outings... Who knows what's in store? To find out, come back every day, between December 1 and 24, 2023, to discover your escapade of the day! Without further ado, here's your day out.
