New this year: bus transport will be free every weekend of the Christmas market.
A journey of illuminations in a floating sleigh
Last year, the city tested boat transport from the Saint-Symphorien car park to the regatta quay, to transport visitors into town.
Victim of its success, it will be enlarged to have a capacity of 80 places, and should make it possible to transport 300 people per hour.
The free trip in the presence of Santa Claus will be enhanced with a illumination route all along the Moselle.
