Christmas market Blieskastel

The Christkind Market in Blieskastel, an annual highlight during the pre-Christmas season, traditionally takes place on the second weekend of Advent, stretching from Friday to Sunday. This unique event, organized by the city administration, unfolds its charm in the Paradeplatz, surrounded by the baroque old town. Visitors can look forward to a festive experience in this historical ambiance..

The baroque old town is the heart of Blieskastel, extending between Luitpoldplatz, Paradeplatz, and the Old Market. Blieskastel, known for its picturesque alleys, historic fountains, and impressive baroque architecture, offers an extraordinary experience with the Christkind Market. The market itself impresses with lovingly designed stalls that harmoniously blend into the cityscape, along with a mood-setting illumination of the surrounding buildings.

A special attraction for both young and old is the visit of Saint Nicholas, who has little surprises for children on all three days of the market. Additionally, a special bus service, the Blieskastel city bus "Dolmusch", facilitates arrival, as parking in the city center is very limited. Visitors are advised to use parking lots along Schloßbergstraße and surrounding areas, as well as parking spaces along the railway and Florianstraße.

Besides the atmospheric market activities, Blieskastel offers other attractions such as historic buildings and squares inviting exploration. The market's program is enriched by musical performances on a festival stage, seamlessly integrated into the market activities, ensuring a lively and festive atmosphere.

The Blieskastel Christkind Market is thus not just a market, but a holistic experience that attracts and impresses visitors from the region and beyond. With its unique mix of traditional Christmas market ambiance, cultural offerings, and the picturesque setting of the baroque old town, the market is an unforgettable experience for all visitors.

The Christmas market takes place annually, and therefore for the 40th time previsibly in December 2024 in Blieskastel.
