Hamburg Christmas market is the perfect event to get you in the mood for Christmas. It’s one of the prettiest markets in Germany, and while it may not be the largest, it benefits from a Hanseatic heritage.
During Advents, there is a Christmas parade every Saturday, while the stalls, shops and street are heavily decorated with plenty of food stands where you can buy mulled wine and Bratwursts. If you’re looking to pick up some last minute presents then you’ll come across wood makers, pottery artists and chocolate makers among others, but be prepared for a crowded atmosphere, especially during the month of December.
Hamburg Christmas market is like no other, and it’s the traditional buildings that make it one of the most beautiful Christmas markets across Europe, and entry is free, so book your ferry or flights soon!
