Any more questions about Christmas Market Dates in Europe This Year?
Let us know in the comments – we’re always happy to help!
Thanks for Such an amazing and informative article….
Welcome!
you have listed Poland under Netherlands
Oops – thanks for catching that! Just fixed it 🙂
Any information on Budapest, Hungary
Hi Mary, thanks for asking! They haven’t announced the dates for all the Christmas markets in Budapest yet, but the main one has recently announced its dates as Nov 19 – Dec 31. Here is a new post we just wrote with more info: https://christmasmarketsineurope.com/budapest-christmas-markets/ Hope you find it helpful!
Brilliant information. Do you know if Latvian Christmas markets are confirmed yet please ?
Thanks, Carol! Glad you’ve found our website helpful 🙂 So far, we haven’t seen any confirmed dates for Latvia’s main Christmas markets. For instance, the official Riga Christmas Market website (https://www.vzt.lv/) is still showing information from last year, but be sure to bookmark our page as we’ll be updating it as soon as we learn more.
Great Information….have you heard about Vilnius, Lithuania?
Hi Karen, there isn’t much info on Vilnius’ Christmas markets yet on their official website, but they recently posted their vendor application form here which lists the dates for this year as Nov 27, 2021 to Jan 9, 2022. Hope that helps a bit: https://www.kaledossostineje.lt/dalyvio-anketa/
Great resource. Many thanks for summarising all the information. I really appreciate this!
Thanks for the kind words, Caroline! So happy you’ve found our site useful 🙂
Hi, I was wondering, in Como, Italy it said TBA. Does that mean that you are deciding the open dates, or that there may not be a christmas market there this year?
Hi Sophie, just to clarify: we are not the organizers of any particular Christmas market – we just translate/collect information from official sources and make them available here for ease of browsing. At the moment, no dates have been announced for Como’s Christmas Market, which most likely means they are waiting to see how cases/numbers develop before making a final decision. We’ll be sure to update this page when we find out more!
Great information to establish where Christmas markets are being held. Sadly I know Bath has been officially cancelled for 2021, which is sad as it is a great venue
Hi Dee, thanks for the comment! Yes unfortunately the Bath Christmas Market in 2021 won’t be taking place in the same way as in previous years, but we’ve heard there will still be decorations and some artisans set up around town. Fingers crossed we can return to normal festivities next year!
