The Dortmund Christmas Market, a festive staple, transforms the city of Dortmund into a radiant winter wonderland each year during the pre-Christmas period. From the end of November until December 30, this market opens its gates, inviting visitors to experience the Advent season in one of Europe's largest Christmas markets.
Located in the heart of the Ruhr area, a region known for its hospitality and winter traditions, Dortmund's Christmas Market serves as a special attraction. The organizer, the Market Trade and Showmen's Association of Westphalia (Markthandel- und Schausteller-Verband Westfalen e.V.), not only brings its extensive expertise to the organization of such large-scale events but also creates an atmosphere that whisks visitors away to a world brimming with Christmas magic.
