A Korean Christmas market returns to central Paris on December 6, bringing K-pop dance events, Korean street food, beauty products and holiday shopping together for one festive day. Organized by Village Coréen, the third edition will take over a 400-square-metre space in the Haut Marais, giving visitors a Korea-themed alternative to the city’s traditional holiday stalls.
French local outlet Sortiraparis highlighted the upcoming market on November 3. Visitors have a few weeks to plan: the event takes place on Sunday, December 6, 2026.
K-pop fans can join Random Dance and karaoke
Music is central to the program. Alongside a dedicated K-pop area, organizers are planning a Random Dance session: snippets of songs play, and fans jump in when they recognize the choreography. There is also a karaoke competition for visitors who would rather sing their favorite tracks.
This is a fan-focused celebration, not a headline concert. Although the announcement mentions popular K-pop acts, it does not confirm that any idol group will perform or attend.
K-food, cosmetics and Korean-made holiday gifts
The organizers are promising more than music. Visitors can browse fashion, illustration, stationery and lifestyle items from Korean creators, discover K-beauty products and sample Korean food. For anyone putting together a holiday gift list, the stalls offer a mix of small finds and Korean-made products that are harder to spot at a conventional Christmas market.
French Christmas markets usually put mulled wine and regional treats in the spotlight. Village Coréen’s version adds Korean flavors and pop-culture shopping to that familiar seasonal setting. The mix makes sense for friends visiting together, even when not everyone in the group is a dedicated K-pop fan.
Families have their own activities too, including children’s face painting, creative workshops and a mailbox for letters to Santa. The market is indoors, so visitors can explore the stalls regardless of the weather outside.
When and where is the Paris Korean Christmas Market?
The market will be held at Le Nama, 43 Rue Notre-Dame-de-Nazareth, 75003 Paris, on Sunday, December 6. According to the ticket listing, it will be open from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. local time. General admission costs €5, and entry is free for children under eight.
The location is in Paris’s 3rd arrondissement, near the Arts-et-Métiers, Temple and Strasbourg–Saint-Denis Métro stations. Because it is a one-day event in a relatively compact venue, visitors may want to allow extra time for queues and check the organizer’s latest guidance before setting off.

A different way to discover Korean culture in Paris
A holiday market may seem like an unusual place for K-pop, but the combination is easy to picture: friends stopping by for snacks, shopping for gifts and then joining a dance challenge. The result is a holiday outing where K-pop fans and curious newcomers can enjoy the same festive atmosphere.
