A Christmas market isn’t complete without festive eats, and you’ll be able to feast on some iconic food items from all over the world, like classic German bratwurst, Belgian waffles, French crepes, Christmas pudding, mince pies, plus Asian delights and more; along with vendors offering items like custom stockings, decor and gifts for you to shop to your heart’s content.

There will also be plenty of family-friendly experiences like an immersive “magic express” train ride through snowy landscapes, workshops with Santa’s elves, storytelling sessions, puppet shows, carolling and nightly musical shows too. If you’re looking to buy a Christmas tree to decorate your home, there’ll even be a Christmas tree farm where you can have your pick of real pine trees and ornaments. The World Christmas Market is pet-friendly too, so you can bring your pets along for some specially curated activities.
