Tips & Advice
- Allow plenty of time to browse, since there are more than 200 stalls spread around Richardplatz.
- Shop here for one-of-a-kind presents like wooden toys, candles, honey and jams, because every stall is run by a nonprofit and every purchase supports a good cause.
- Look beyond the bratwurst if you're vegetarian or vegan, as many of the specialties from around the world are meat-free or fully vegan.
- Dress warmly, because the market is outdoors and runs into the evening on all three days.
- Apply as a vendor only if your group is a nonprofit, because private and commercial sellers are excluded from the market.
