The coolest Christmas gifts at this alternative Christmas market

Said to be the nightclub among Christmas markets, this travelling concept will open its doors to the public for three different weekends in December: at the iconic Arena Berlin, at Hamburg Messe and at Phoenixhalle im Römerkastell in Stuttgart. Taking place every year since 2004, this pre-Christmas shopping design platform promotes young and upcoming designers, turning unusual locations into huge pop-up shopping locations.

Escape the hustle and bustle of regular Christmas markets while you shop and support young creators, local manufacturers and artists. 340 designers and artists will offer their products during the second weekend of Advent, while DJs play a range of lounge and electronic music in the background.

High-quality, unique lifestyle presents for all 

Expect to find everything from fashion, jewellery and accessories to furniture, art, literature and photography as you browse through the festively decorated stalls with a mulled wine in hand. Local designers from each city will be promoted at each fair, making them truly one of a kind.

In case you get a bit hungry from all the shopping, then stop for a bite of wintery local food and German beer or more mulled wine. Festive and regional delicacies will also be offered to take away on-site as well, so you can be sure you’ll find that perfect gift.
