Even though I do lots of boring threads with photos at Anyport, I will spare you that and just propose 3 videos of Christmas in Paris -- two of the deparment store Christmas windows and one of the Champs Elysées Christmas market. Galeries Lafayette

Bonjour madame Sans Souci, combien sont ces six cent six saucissons-ci ? Ces six cent six saucissons-ci sont six sous. Six sous, ces six cent six saucissons-ci ! Si ces six cent six saucissons-ci sont six sous, ces six cent six saucissons-ci sont trop chers. ;-)
Thank you for sharing this with us. it reminds me of previous visits to Paris. Notably for the New Years Eve 1999/2000.

It is really different every year, but the same guy is in charge of "string animation" at both stores. I imagine that there must be a confidentiality clause in his contract.

To end the season, here is the video about the museum of funfair items, which is also a main draw for the holiday period. (It is private so it only opens to the public after Christmas when it has sucked all of the money that it can out of corporate receptions and such.)
