  • Arrive earlier on weekdays to enjoy a more relaxed browsing experience among the 100+ artisan stalls.
  • Don't miss trying the traditional Feuerzangenbowle and various Glühwein selections, especially on cooler evenings.
  • Check the schedule for specific times of Santa Claus visits and any scheduled performances on the small stage.
  • Consider visiting on New Year's Eve for a unique late-night market experience, ending at 3 AM.
  • Bring cash for smaller vendors, as not all may accept card payments for their handmade crafts and gifts.
