The Porrentruy Christmas Market brings together Jura craftspeople in a covered market. It takes place at the Hôtel des Halles on Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 December 2026.
The story
In 2022, Porrentruy had two Christmas markets, one in the Faubourg de France and one at the Halles. In 2023, the two were brought together under a single organisation. The market was then in its second edition, with around fifty craftspeople.
In 2023, around 80% of exhibitors came from the Jura, the rest from other cantons. The committee also proposed working with the Delémont and Saint-Ursanne markets. It focused on communication, logistics and the choice of dates.
The third edition, in December 2024, announced more than 60 craftspeople. Around ten applications had to be turned down. The association La Grotte was guest of honour, with music and a competition.
Who organises it
The official pages consulted do not name the organiser of the 2026 edition. In 2023, the market was run by the association “#2900 J’aime mes pavés” (#2900 I Love My Cobblestones), chaired by Cédric Gueniat. In 2024, the Union du commerce local d’Ajoie et du Clos du Doubs organised it.
What to find
The market is covered and brings together craftspeople from the Jura. It fills the Hôtel des Halles and the Espace Auguste Viatte. Visitors find Christmas decorations, festive food and mulled wine.
The market opens on Saturday from 9 am to 6 pm and on Sunday from 10 am to 6 pm. The streets of the old town are decorated for the festive season.
