Whether for decoration, disguises or any other festive item, the "Fêt'à fête" shop in the city center of Grenoble has taken on the colors of Christmas. Even if there are no crowds, the fault of a certain virus, business is still going better than last year.

Almost all business services have been canceled, "we lost 90% of our turnover on this", explains Angélique Roux. "There are people, but less than before, summarizes the manager. We will not arrive at the figures for 2019, but it is better than last year. We feel that people want to party. We have fewer gifts for Secret Santas in offices, for example, it was less done."

There are still loyal customers, like Marie: "At that time, I buy all my decorations, even my table decorations. I also buy accessories for my work, I am a waitress in a café and disguises." Sales have still increased compared to 2020, a sign that Grenoble residents are still in the mood for the party.
