Stralsund Christmas market 2026: Opening times and closed days
The confirmed daily opening times are shown in our overview. The market takes a break or closes on 24 and 25 December 2026.

Opening times may differ from regular market days, especially on days with special programmes or public holidays.
Tips for getting to Stralsund
The map shows the central location. It's also worth checking the town's traffic and parking information. Roads nearby may be closed during large annual markets. Public transport is therefore often a good alternative to driving. If large crowds are expected, allow plenty of time to get to the event site.
Funfair atmosphere and food
There's much more to a market visit than just the big rides. You can enjoy a leisurely stroll, take a short break and soak up the special atmosphere. However, offers from showmen and traders may change before the event begins. We therefore don't list food businesses that have not yet been named and confirmed for this year's event.
