Eppendorf Christmas stroll

Lasting enjoyment and festive fun for the whole family

Small and hyggelig: one of Hamburg's most charming Christmas markets in the heart of Eppendorf.

A charming spot during the festive season

As the year draws to a close, the Marie-Jonas-Platz in Eppendorf transforms into a small winter wonderland. The Eppendorf Christmas Market brings light and warmth to the season, offering a cozy and intimate setting away from the hustle of the big city.

Small, delightful and full of heart

Though modest in size, the market makes up for it with atmosphere. Wooden stalls, festive lights, and the scent of mulled wine and roasted treats fill the air. The “Glühwurm” punch hut is the centerpiece – a perfect place to enjoy hot drinks, friendly chats and a relaxed winter mood. Whether it’s mulled wine, apple punch or hot chocolate – there’s a warm welcome for everyone.

A favourite for families

Children can enjoy a nostalgic carousel, festive surprises and occasional visits from St. Nicholas. Music, storytelling and activities create a joyful and informal holiday experience that families especially appreciate.

Sustainability and community spirit

The market is committed to sustainability and mindful consumption. Vendors focus on regional products, fair practices and environmentally friendly concepts. Social causes are also supported – sharing and caring are key elements of this special event.

A place to relax and enjoy

Whether with friends, family or on your own, the Eppendorf Christmas Market is a peaceful retreat during the busy Advent season. If you’re looking for a market that’s more heartfelt than hectic, this is the place. Small, soulful and full of festive charm – a true local favourite.

CITY AREA PORTRAIT Eimsbüttel & Eppendorf

Here, one can find magnificent old building façades, local and exquisite restaurants as well as fancy boutiques and owner-operated shops. While Eppendorf is rather fancy, one can feel the hanseatic serenity in Eimsbüttel. Both districts offer much green and water and are hence with good reason very popular neighbourhoods in Hamburg.
