"Vive Noël!" Festival

For its first edition, the Neuviller-la-Roche Festival Committee turns Advent into a time of sharing and conviviality.

From November 28 to December 19, four Saturdays are filled with twelve varied activities, inviting neighbors, families, and friends to gather. In the heart of the village, a pop-up tavern offers hot chocolate and soups, while the Creatives' Boutique showcases works by local artists and artisans from the Rothaine area. Each week brings surprises: a traveling choir animates the streets, illuminations transform the village into a luminous setting, and a mystery Advent calendar appears in residents' windows. The program also includes a visit from Saint Nicholas, a torchlight procession followed by a lantern release, an ugly Christmas sweater contest, and an intergenerational pentathlon.

The festival concludes on January 9, 2027 with "On the Lookout for the Wise Men," a nocturnal and gourmet hike.
