Bratislava’s Christmas markets remain true to their original concept which is to use its beautiful historic town centre to create an ideal Christmas family atmosphere..

Souvenir stands sell traditional ceramics, metalwork, woodwork, straw-work, textiles, glass, hand-made Christmas ornaments and Christmas wreaths. You can also  taste all the “killer” local  treats so typical of Bratislava Christmas cooking. Try lokše pancakes: larded bread with onions and potato pancakes.  Or sink your teeth into strudel, crepes, wafers, gingerbread and Christmas cakes. In the chilly air, warm up with hot chocolate, mulled  wine, Christmas punch or traditional mead.

During the weekends of advent, children from Bratislava, Brno, Vienna and Krakow will sing you Christmas carols and present Christmas customs. The 2015 edition will feature more than 100 stalls lining  the Main Square and the adjacent courtyard of the City Hall.  Folk dancing, concerts and performances for children will add to the holiday fun.
