For Madame, it’s shopping with a choice of the chic boutiques of Old Lille, the big names in the pedestrianised shopping streets and bargains at L’Usine or McArthur Glen. For Monsieur, it’s a football match or stand-up comedy at the Ligue d’Improvisation in Marcq-en-Baroeul. And then the two of you can meet up, as seasoned spectators at the Festival 1000 and One, for the Nuit Celtique and the Bal Tzigane.
