What typical gifts Mans and the Sartheand last minute, offer to loved ones for Noël ?
Derived products, gastronomic, leisure… Here are 10 ideas to please family or friends!
The official book of the 24 Hours of Le Mans
For fans of the 24 Hours, numerous derivative products are available for sale, in stores or on the internet. The official book for the 2024 edition (€49), the 92nd won by Ferrari, was released on November 20.
A lap on the 24 Hours track
Baptism, off-road, training… What could be better for a racing enthusiast than discovering the track from the inside? The Porsche Experience Center or Motorsport Academy allows you to experience the sensations of a 24 Hours of Le Mans driver (from €174) on the Bugatti or Maison Blanche circuit.
The rillettes obviously!
An inseparable product of Sarthe, the rillettes are found everywhere! The best are also rewarded each year through a competition. The famous pork-based recipe is also available… in brandy!
A bottle of Jasnières
Another Sarthois production: wine. Born in the vineyards of the south of the department, the Jasnières is undoubtedly the most famous. Several shops offer them in Le Mans, as well as La Maison du vigne, recently opened in Chartre-sur-le-Loir.
Petit Sablé and its varieties
It is a dry and round biscuit which is an integral part of the culinary heritage of the department: the Small Shortbread. Sold plain or in various flavors (caramel, fruity, chocolate, etc.), they are found in two famous brands in Le Mans: Maison Drans (rue Marchande) or La Sablésienne (rue de la Perle).
Craft beer
Some will prefer beer! At Le Mans, several breweries offer a wide range: La Distillerie du Sonneur, Brasserie Septante-Deux or La Chaloupe. Craft beers that can also be found at the Christmas market, Place de la République.
And for those with a sweet tooth?
And if you have difficulty deciding and want to vary the pleasures, why not opt for the garnished basket? Drinks, sweets, rillettes… Some stores in the city center offer boxes already packaged or to put together yourself.
The Sarthe Gift Voucher
To provide guests with unusual stays, restaurants, well-being moments, and other services, Sarthe has launched “The Gift Voucher 72”. That is more than 72 experiences (from €20 to €50 per voucher) in the department to choose from, during the year.
Hikes around Le Mans
Another way to introduce Sarthe lovers of excursions on foot or by bike: the book hikes . The Le Mans Métropole tourist office reissued its walking log around Boulevard Nature. Available at the office and in bookstores, it includes 24 detachable sheets (€9) as well as anecdotes and advice.
A show place
Humor, concert or theater? Here's a good plan when you don't know the tastes or availability of your loved ones. The Palais des Congrès continues its season until May 31, 2025 before major expansion work. Gift vouchers (from €10 to €50) are on sale online.
La Salle Comédie (rue Nationale) also offers a gift card to see one of the shows (for 12 months).
