Looking for an unforgettable outing for your summer evenings in Corsica?
How about discovering Solenzara’s night market, fondly called “la piétonne” by the locals?
Every Wednesday and Saturday evening, from 7 p.m. to midnight, the heart of the village comes alive.
The streets close to cars, music takes over… and the magic begins.
What exactly is Solenzara’s pedestrian evening?
Imagine a Corsican village transformed once night falls.
The stalls of local artisans fill the main street.
Children run, families stroll, laughter echoes.
Welcome to the pedestrian evening—the night-time, festive version of the traditional market.
Dozens of vendors greet you, restaurants open their terraces, and musicians set up.
It’s Solenzara’s quintessential summer event.
And in 2025 it will take place every Wednesday and Saturday evening throughout July and August.
Why everyone loves Solenzara’s night market
Because it lets you experience Corsica differently—more gently, more warmly.
Between two stalls of jewellery or local delicacies, you stop to listen to a live band.
A little further on, a DJ gets both kids and parents dancing.
You chat, you taste, you laugh.
All in a friendly atmosphere, car-free and under the stars.
Right at the heart of the action: Hôtel-Restaurant Les 3 Terrasses
If you want to experience the night market from the inside, sit right in the centre of the main street.
That’s where you’ll find Hôtel-Restaurant Les 3 Terrasses.
Our terrace overlooks the buzz.
Sip a house cocktail and enjoy a platter of Corsican charcuterie as the music slowly builds.
And that’s not all: we host our own DJ nights and live concerts during every market evening.
A unique atmosphere, a warm welcome, and a prime table from which to enjoy the pedestrian evening without leaving your plate.

Remember to book if you want to dine or have a drink at Les 3 Terrasses.
