Tips & Advice
- Arrive early on weekends, especially in the afternoon, to fully experience the market and enjoy the festive atmosphere before it gets too crowded.
- Dress warmly in layers, as parts of the venue are outdoors and it's a winter event, but also bring comfortable shoes for exploring the market and studios.
- Check the daily schedule for specific performances and events happening on the small stage or in the evening program to make the most of your visit.
- Don't miss the chance to explore the open artist studios; it's a great opportunity to see unique creations and perhaps find a special handmade gift.
- Consider visiting on a weekday evening for a potentially more relaxed experience, especially if you prefer to browse the stalls and enjoy the food without large crowds.
