Düsseldorf-Pempelfort – Nordstraße Christmas Market 2026
What to expect
Nordstraße Christmas Market Düsseldorf 2026 takes place from Thursday, 19 November, to Wednesday, 23 December 2026 in the Pempelfort district. Several festively decorated Christmas market squares with stalls, winter drinks and special family events are set up along Nordstraße. The Interessengemeinschaft Weihnachtsmarkt-Düsseldorf.com confirms the dates and core opening times on its official website. It also organises different themed events on the four Advent Sundays. The Christmas market is separate from the large central markets in Düsseldorf's Old Town.
Nordstraße Christmas Market Düsseldorf 2026: Dates and squares
The Christmas market opens on 19 November 2026 and closes on 23 December. According to the organiser, the stalls are spread across three locations: at the Dreieck, on the corner of Schwerinstraße and on the corner of Goebenstraße. This means you can combine a visit to the market with a walk around the neighbourhood. However, it is closed on Sunday, 22 November, for Totensonntag. The other Advent events also take place only on the announced dates. Nordstraße therefore has its own event listing rather than being grouped with the large Düsseldorf city-centre Christmas market.
Opening times and food and drink
The organiser's website gives the core opening times as 11:30 to 20:30 o'clock. On Sundays, regular market trading starts at 12 o'clock and also ends at 20:30 o'clock. However, the food and drink stalls may open earlier or close later; their individual times do not apply to all stalls. Our schedule therefore shows the confirmed core opening times and does not present different food and drink stall times as general market opening times. If you want to visit a particular stall, check its notice or the organiser's latest information.
Nordstraße Christmas Market Düsseldorf 2026: Advent events
On the first Advent Sunday, 29 November, the Interessengemeinschaft announces a children's Sunday with activities and surprises. On the second Advent Sunday, 6 December, the neighbourhood celebrates a Sunday when shops are open. The third Advent Sunday, on 13 December, is promoted as a family day. The fourth Advent Sunday, on 20 December, puts food and drink offers with a focus on organic, vegan and regional products in the spotlight. The organiser has confirmed these themed days. However, no specific times for individual children's activities are available publicly, so none have been invented.
Christmas market huts and regional specialities
According to the organiser, the individual Christmas market squares offer traditional festive food and drinks, as well as places to get together and relax. Punsch, mulled wine, roasted almonds and sweet baked goods are also among the Nordstraße market's advertised offerings. The operator emphasises using local products wherever possible and handling packaging in a more environmentally friendly way. On a walk around the market, you can discover both classic food and drink options and different traders from the neighbourhood. The official information does not publish exact numbers of stallholders for the 2026 edition.
Getting there and important information
The Christmas market is on Nordstraße in 40477 Düsseldorf-Pempelfort. You can reach the neighbourhood on tram lines 701, 705 and 707, for example via the Venloer Straße or Dreieck stops. The Interessengemeinschaft also provides information about parking nearby. The organiser's website does not list a clearly stated general admission charge, so we do not give an invented admission policy. You can read more on the official Christmas market website or from the Nordstraßen-Werbegemeinschaft. Find more Advent markets in our events calendar.
