Experience Bô Noël Lausanne - Place de l'Europe

Bô Noël Lausanne at Place de l'Europe offers a distinctive twist on traditional Christmas markets, featuring the celebrated Igloo du Terroir Vaudois and Marché du Terroir. This contemporary Christmas market showcases the best of Vaud regional products in a warm, inviting atmosphere. The Igloo du Terroir serves as the centerpiece, offering authentic Swiss fondue experiences including specialty variations like porcini fondue, paired with local Chasselas wines from the Vaud region. Visitors can savor traditional Swiss dishes while seated by cozy firesides, creating an intimate alpine atmosphere in the heart of Lausanne. The market specializes in local food products, artisan cheeses, charcuterie boards, and regional specialties that celebrate Swiss culinary heritage. Beyond the Igloo, the Place de l'Europe location features heated marquees and wooden chalets where guests can enjoy everything from raclette to seasonal treats. As part of the larger Bô Noël festival spanning multiple locations across Lausanne, this market connects easily to other themed markets at St. François, Bel-Air, and the Flon district. The market operates from late November through New Year's Eve, offering both locals and travelers an authentic taste of Swiss terroir. For the best experience, visit during evening hours when the festive lights create a magical ambiance, and arrive with cash as some vendors may not accept cards.
