The Christmas Car from Compagnie Mephisto, a small electric car transformed into a mobile stage, takes its procession of characters - Mickey, Minnie, Olaf, Father Christmas - from the covered market to the ramparts of the Cit\u00e9 Vauban. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>READ MORE:<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/petit-montagnard.fr\/en\/serre-chevalier-sapprete-to-host-this-spectacular-event-for-the-first-time\/\"><strong> <\/strong>Serre Chevalier prepares to host this spectacular event for the first time<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, on 23 December, the Plan\u00e8te Vapeur company takes Brian\u00e7on into a cosmic universe, with stilt-walkers, acrobats and luminous silhouettes parading like a living solar system, transforming the town centre into a celestial setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Younger visitors can visit Santa's House, open from 21 to 30 December at Porte de Pignerol, where the old man in red will be welcoming families until 24 December inclusive.
