Hello everyone! How are you on Monday, December 23? We remind you that today is the start of the “Sports Holidays” event organized by the City of Brest. It is intended for young people aged 10 to 17 and takes place at the Jean-Guéguéniat sports complex, in the Saint-Marc district, until tomorrow. It's free but requires registration, to be done on site. To find out more, click here! A nighttime version is also available this evening! Bring a white or fluorescent t-shirt!
Today we celebrate the birthdays of singer Carla Bruni-Sarkozy (57 years old), Queen Sylvia of Sweden (81 years old) and even Canadian actor Finn Wolfhard (22 years old) known for his interpretation, since 2016, by Mike Wheeler, one of the main characters of the television series Stranger Things. Can't wait for 2025 to watch season 5! No release date has been announced yet so we'll have to be patient…
The weather
The wind has calmed down but we shouldn't expect a crazy day which may well be interspersed with showers. The sun will rise at 9:09 a.m. and set at 5:27 p.m. As for temperatures, they will be between 9 and 12 degrees. And don't forget to wish the Armands a happy birthday! [La météo à Brest]
Traffic in real time
It's a combo: school holidays plus the work break in many sectors of the city. Do you feel this newfound serenity behind the wheel? Enjoy while it lasts! Of course, the workers are still on the roads and we notice some slowdowns on the rue Anatole-France side. For users of the Bibus network, pay attention: from this day, certain bus lines will go into “school vacation” mode and timetables will be changed.
The record of the day
This Sunday, December 22, François Cuillandre broke the longevity record for a mayor of Brest. A record that should be brought to 25 years, give or take a few days since we do not yet know the exact date of the municipal elections in March 2026.
The article that makes your mouth water
Sit on the sofa, curl up in a blanket and open a box filled with little chocolate squares. It’s tempting, isn’t it? Yes, but here it is: at €100 per kilo or more in the finest Brest stores, the price of chocolate continues to rise. We explain why!
