Christmas in Düsseldorf

Every year in the run-up to Christmas, the city is bathed in festive splendour: the Dome of lights is aglow, the air is filled with the scent of roasted almonds, and Düsseldorf’s Christmas market attracts visitors with arts and crafts, the Old Town Market and delicious treats. In 2026, it will take place from 19 November to 30 December. The whole of Düsseldorf city centre is transformed into a Christmas paradise, lined with hundreds of fir trees.
