About
Below the Belfry, the Markt hosts the classic Christmas market with chalets for gifts, mulled wine and treats. A few streets away, Simon Stevinplein focuses on local, short-chain and handmade products. Both markets, refreshed in Wintergloed's warm style, sit within a wider winter programme of lights, the Winter Giant, the IJsgloed winter bar and an ice rink in King Albert I Park. From 18 to 20 December, the Handmade in Brugge MAKERSmarkt fills the Stadshallen. Tip: leave the car at a park-and-ride and take the bus into town.
