When are the night markets in the Cœur de Nacre ?
There’s nothing nicer than getting lost in the bustling alleys of our night markets in Cœur de Nacre, in Normandy by the sea during July and August.
A stroll through a night market is a sure-fire way to recapture the sweet smell of childhood.
Whether you’re looking for local crafts, regional products or souvenir of Normandy, you’re bound to find what you’re looking for.
Normandy’s night markets are a must for young and old alike.
And what vacation souvenir will you find ?

A stroll through the night markets in summer is a great way to round off a day’s vacation !
Home-made products, decorative objects, fun knick-knacks, jewelry… and regional gourmet products :
Normandy cheeses, ciders and perries, desserts made with Normandy apples…
You can also take advantage of the long summer evenings to enjoy an ice cream, a hot chichis or a crispy waffle, overlooking the sea.
What are the dates of the Cœur de Nacre night markets ?
Luc-sur-Mer night market

Monday evenings from July 7 to August 25 from 6 to 10 p.m. – Rue de la Mer
In this pretty seaside resort on the Côte de Nacre, the night market is preceded by an aperitif-concert in the Parc de l’Hôtel de Ville from 6:45pm.
End your stroll with a sweet treat: let yourself be tempted by a Gui-Gui !
The Gui-Gui is the Côte de Nacre’s guilty pleasure: a colorful sweet wrapped around a stick, to be enjoyed with your feet in the sand.
Meeting with the whale
If you are in Luc-sur-Mer on a Monday evening, after your stroll through the night market, go to the Hôtel de Ville park, otherwise known as the Parc de la Baleine.
There you will discover the huge skeleton of a whale that washed up on the beach in 1885 !
Children will love the playground and the farm animals.
And to end the evening on a high note, why not pop over to watch the sunset from the restaurants‘s rooftop.
