  • Download the city's PDF map of the market pitches before you go, so you can find your way around Kauppatori.
  • Dress warmly in layers and good boots, since this is a December market out on the open square.
  • Would-be sellers should contact the city's market supervisor about pitches, since that office handles stalls and events on Kauppatori.
