Illuminations : c'est déjà la magie de Noël à Toulouse

The report below shows how successful the illuminations and Marché de Noël were in Toulouse last year. The illuminations which were lit last night in the rue d'Alsace were featured in a picture in the Depeche and yes it  has made me want to arrange a christmas shopping trip.

When we go to Toulouse we generally go on the train. We could go from Laguepie or Lexos but as these stations are not manned we prefer driving to Cordes / Vindrac which is manned. Then if there are any delays at least we are told about them. The train also goes from Caussade, timetables available on 

Deux millions de visiteurs attendus au Marché de Noël

Depuis hier matin, les 113 chalets blancs du marché de Noël sont ouverts place du Capitole. Organisé par la Dépêche Events, cette manifestation qui en 2012, a attiré près de deux millions de visiteurs se poursuit jusqu’au 26 décembre. Pierre Vincent, coordinateur général depuis huit ans rappelle quelques fondamentaux de cette animation.

Hi, Val.
People may want to wait until after 14th December for that train trip to Toulouse, as I think that work on the line goes on until that date. There is currently a rail replacement service (aka a bus) from Tessonnieres to Toulouse, which adds 50 minutes to the journey.
All the best.
