About

Gdańsk's big Christmas market fills the streets of the Main Town with stalls, a crafts zone and a program of live events, set among the city's Gdańsk Illuminations light displays. Kids can wander the stalls, catch a show and pick out a handmade gift. It suits families happy with a slow walk and plenty of stops. Everything is outdoors in the Baltic winter, so dress warm and plan short loops.
