Christmas markets for the 2nd Advent
The map of the Christmas markets has been updated. Partly, for good reasons (interesting markets discovered), but also because at least one market was cancelled. The red hearts represent markets that are open every day. The green ones, for markets that are only open on certain dates.
As always, there are recommendations for this weekend:
- Parents of younger children should check out the FEZ in one the four Advent weekends, with their special Advent Fez programme
- Also in this area: baking cookies, on Sundays in Haus Natur und Umwelt in Wuhlheide
- Because of the "situation", many of the most stable Christmas and Advent offers are in shopping centres. It might sound a bit disappointing and cynical to visit a shopping centre, but there are some cool things. On Sunday Nikolaus (Santa) will visit the Das Schloss shopping centre in Steglitz. And, if you haven't been there, the one on Tempelhofer Hafen provides stunning views (for a shopping centre...) and offers special activities for kids on Saturday.
- Instead of buying a Christmas tree, you can borrow it, e.g. from "Napoleon Komplex", Modersohnstraße 35-45, 10245 Berlin. At the weekend there is mulled wine, art and much more ...
- And now, something completely different: a sex-positive market in the Alte Münze with the title "Merry Clitsmas Market 2021", Sat + Sun
- A nice market in Silent Green in Wedding on both weekend days, with designer articles, food, music, kids programme etc. (info)
Hanukkah
The 6th to 8th candles will be lit this weekend, and there are also events on the occasion of the festival:
- Sixth candle on Friday:
- Folkadu play Hanukkah music in the Bavul Art and Culture Cafe at Annenstr 13 (Info)
- A somewhat wilder Hanukkah activity (and definitely not suitable for children) awaits you at Oyoun, Lucy-Lameck-Straße 32,, BerliN starting at 8 pm: The satirical / drag cabaret "Jews Jews Jews"
- Seventh candle on Saturday:
- Menora lightning near the Rotes Rathaus in Alexanderplatz, 7:30pm
- Eighth candle on December 5th,
- The Shtetl Khanuke Markt, as part of the Shtetl Berlin Festival, will provide for food, music and more on Sunday between 4 and 8 pm. Admiussion is free, but you have to register in advance to get the address
- The Hashomer Hatzair Hanukkah Party, at 4 pm
- Folkadu Concert in Fraenkelufer with candle lightning at 5 pm
Wait, there's more!
Hard to believe, but there is more.
- Sunday is a free Museum Sunday and with many activities for young and old.
- A pop-up gallery this weekend at the place that was the court of Charlottenburg (info and tickets)
- Children concerts in the Philharmonie, Sat + Sun (tickets)
