Christmas market Kempen

The "Market of Stars" is the annual Christmas market in the picturesque town of Kempen, which warms the hearts of its visitors with its festive atmosphere during the Advent season, from Friday to Sunday every weekend. The market is a steadfast component of Kempen's urban culture and tradition.

Kempen itself, with its historical charm and well-preserved medieval structures, provides the perfect backdrop for this Yuletide market. The organization is managed by XDream-Events, an event planner known for their attention to detail and knack for creating unforgettable experiences.

The center of the action is the Buttermarkt, surrounded by impressive buildings whose historical architecture generates a unique ambiance. The market extends through the adjoining alleys and over the main square, where stalls are lovingly arranged with crafts, gift ideas, and Christmas decorations.

The market's distinctiveness lies in its intimate, almost familial atmosphere. Here, there is no mass-produced merchandise, only select products and culinary delights. Traditional treats like roasted almonds, gingerbread, and mulled wine are essentials and passionately offered by local vendors.

A distinctive feature of the "Market of Stars" is the vibrant supporting program with music, performances, and activities for children, setting it apart from other Christmas markets. It is this blend of historical setting, exclusive craftsmanship, and familial warmth that makes the market so worth visiting and consistently delivers unforgettable moments each year.

The Christmas market in Kempen took place from Friday, 20. December to Sunday, 22. December 2024.
