Poznan Christmas Markets 2024 in Poland

Christmas Markets is the most popular seasonal attraction in Poznan. Thanks to its enchanting atmosphere, markets attract thousands of visitors to the city center.

Christmas Market at Targi (November 16–December 22, 2024)

The Poznań Bethlehem Market (Betlejem Poznańskie) features dozens of wooden chalets, offering decor items and crafts, as well as delicious food and mulled wine. The main attractions of the event are a mill wheel, Santa Claus' house, an open-air ice rink, Marcin the Talking Moose, a racetrack, a covered Winter Bar, and plenty of Christmas spirit.
