Christmas and winter market 2026: new attractions at Munich Airport

Christmas and Winter Market 2026 at Munich Airport: the new edition opens at the MAC Forum on 13 November. Until 27 December, winter stalls, an ice rink and numerous activities await you. The airport announced the new features and prices on 4 November.

New offers at Christmas and Winter Market 2026

This year, the stalls also offer Corn Dogs, handmade wooden nativity scenes, embroidered cushions and baking accessories with engraved rolling pins, among other things. There are also speciality cheeses and other winter treats. According to the organiser, mulled wine prices start at 4,50 euros, the same as last year. Admission to the market is free.

Family day at Christmas and Winter Market 2026

Every Tuesday, each exhibitor offers at least one discounted product. This makes it an especially good day to visit with your family. You can also paint ceramics in the creative workshop. The classes are free; you pay for the ceramic items you choose. The workshop is open on Fridays from 17 to 21, and on Saturdays and Sundays from 14 to 21.

Ice disco and winter sports at Munich Airport

You can also go ice skating or play Bavarian curling on the ice rink. Ice skating costs five euros per person, with skate hire costing an additional five euros. A Bavarian curling lane costs 25 euros per hour. On four Wednesday evenings—25 November and 2, 9 and 16 December—there is an ice disco with a DJ from 18. Music groups also provide entertainment.

Light tours and special views

From 13 November to 27 December, light tours lasting around an hour are also offered after dark across the illuminated airport apron. The regular tour costs 15 euros, with a reduced price of nine euros. Children under five travel free. Tickets are available online only. Allow an additional 20 to 30 minutes for the security check and arrive at the meeting point in the M-Forum, München Airport Center Süd, level 04, ten minutes before the tour starts.

Getting there and parking

Important for your journey: the Christmas and winter market is in the MAC Forum at Munich Airport. The airport therefore recommends that visitors to the market use car park P20, which offers special rates: the first hour is free, up to three hours costs a flat rate of five euros, and up to seven hours costs ten euros. This information concerns parking charges, not a road closure or diversion. Check the airport’s latest notices before setting off.

Opening hours and further information

Finally, the market is open daily from 13 November to and including 27 December 2026, from 11 to 21. On 24 December, it closes at 16.
