Neuhauser Christmas market 2026: Dates and opening times

The Neuhauser Christmas market opens on Friday, 20 November 2026, and closes on Wednesday, 23 December. The stalls are normally open daily from 11 o’clock until 20:30 o’clock. However, there is an important exception: Sunday, 22 November 2026, is Totensonntag and therefore explicitly not a market day. The city of Munich also omits this day from its current events list. Plan your visit for Monday, 23 November or later. No other special opening times are explicitly announced on the event page we checked.

Arts and crafts at Rotkreuzplatz

You’ll find numerous stalls selling handmade goods around Rotkreuzplatz. According to the city’s events calendar, the range includes nativity figures, Christmas tree decorations and beeswax candles. Wooden toys, ceramics and glass art are also on offer. You can browse for Christmas gifts and little treats for your home. There are also changing ranges of decorative and handcrafted items. The availability of individual goods depends on the stalls, so no unverified trader lists or fixed quantities are promised.

Neuhauser Christmas market 2026: Mulled wine and winter specialities

There are various hot dishes at the market for a break. The city of Munich mentions crêpes, Flammkuchen, Kässpatzen and Schupfnudeln, among others. They go well with mulled wine, Feuerzangenbowle and children’s punch. On chilly evenings in particular, you can combine your visit to the market with a cosy stop for refreshments. However, the official listing does not state the individual prices charged by food and drink vendors 2026. Food and drinks are therefore not automatically included in free market admission.

Kasperl theatre and St Nicholas for children

The Neuhauser market has its own family programme. According to the city of Munich, the Kasperl theatre performs at 14 o’clock and 15 o’clock on each of the four Advent Sundays. St Nicholas visits Rotkreuzplatz at 17 o’clock on Saturday, 5 December 2026. If you’re visiting with children, it’s worth planning your trip around one of these times. The Kasperl theatre is a regular part of the announced programme. You can find out about possible changes from the city’s or market association’s latest event schedule.

Music and a festive Advent stroll

Musical performances are also planned alongside the children’s programme. According to the event page, choirs, brass ensembles and other music groups create a pre-Christmas atmosphere. The exact performance times and line-up may vary from day to day, so we don’t list any additional unconfirmed performer names. You can visit the market briefly or use it as a meeting place with friends. Its location in the heart of Neuhausen also makes it easy to combine a stroll with shopping in the neighbourhood.
