Biggest Christmas Market of the East (Arnhem)
One Sunday of a big winter market in Arnhem's centre, 100+ stalls, 13 December, 12:00–18:00.
Nijmegen has no big Christmas market on the Grote Markt; in 2026 the main event is Winterburg, a new winter festival in the Kronenburgerpark, under ten minutes' walk from the station. It combines a Christmas market, an ice rink and music as part of the Nijmeegse Winterweken. Opening hours vary by day, mostly evenings on weekdays. Entry costs a few euros, or is included with a concert or skating ticket.
Hours are for the festival site; Christmas market stalls may open on fewer days or for shorter hours.
