Arrival of the Flottins

The Barnes Léman real estate agency opened its doors to welcome the magic of the Flottins, thus celebrating the arrival of this emblematic festival.

On Friday, December 15th, about sixty people gathered at the premises of the Évian-les-Bains agency to share a friendly and festive moment around a cocktail dinner.

This event, organized by the Barnes Léman team, allowed participants to immerse themselves in the unique atmosphere that the Flottins bring to Évian-les-Bains every year.

For Barnes Léman, this initiative reflects its commitment to the local community and its desire to actively participate in the cultural events that enrich the region. The real estate agency not only plays a key role in the real estate sector, but also strives to create meaningful connections with the local population, including our clients and key partners. The Arrival of the Flottins in Évian-les-Bains. The arrival of the Flottins in Évian-les-Bains is a symbolic moment marking the beginning of the Christmas market. The event begins with a spectacular ceremony where fantastic characters made of driftwood disembark on the shores of Lake Geneva. These creatures, called the Flottins, arrive in a magical and theatrical atmosphere, transported on original boats.

The arrival ceremony is often accompanied by music, dances, and artistic performances, creating a festive and enchanted atmosphere. The Flottins, dressed in elaborate costumes and often masked, descend from their boats to interact with the public, thus sharing the magic of Christmas with residents and visitors.

Throughout the event, the Flottins take over the city, animating the streets with their parades, live performances, and spontaneous encounters. They contribute to creating a fairy-tale atmosphere that transforms the city into a magical place during the holiday season.

In conclusion, a big thank you to all the participants and to the Théâtre de la Toupine. In closing this memorable evening, we want to express our gratitude to all the participants who contributed to making this event an unforgettable success. We also want to extend our warm thanks to the Théâtre de la Toupine for giving us the opportunity to bring the Flottins BARNES to life.

The realization of this project was much more than a simple festive initiative. Indeed, it played an essential role in strengthening the bonds within our team throughout its construction.

Beyond this internal dimension, our participation in decorating the city of Évian-les-Bains held special significance. By actively supporting this emblematic event, we contributed to the magic that transforms our city into a fairy-tale place during the holiday season.
