Tips & Advice
- Arrive early on the first day to explore the widest selection of unique crafts and gifts before they are snapped up.
- Bring cash for purchases, as many local artisans and vendors may not accept card payments.
- Check the weather forecast and dress in warm layers, as much of the market experience will likely be outdoors.
- Consider visiting on the second or third day for a potentially more relaxed browsing experience, while still finding plenty of festive treasures.
- Engage with the vendors to learn about their crafts and the stories behind their handmade items – it adds a special touch to your shopping.
