This Christmas market is a brainchild from Das Brotkoerbchen (Barbara), Eurozone (Patrick), and other members of the German language group such as Elizabeth (Beth's German Goodies), and more. As a way of celebrating the infamous German Christmas markets that members of the German community so deeply missed. So, here is our take on a traditional German Christkindlmarkt, now conveniently located where we live.
Admission is free, so come shop or just look around and experience a piece of European tradition right here at home.
This is a one day event open from 12:30pm - 7:00pm. Our opening ceremony will be from 12:30pm to 1 pm, check out the special events page for more information.
While our vendor booths will be closed until 1:00pm, make sure you get here on time to watch our special ceremony as well as buying your tickets for the raffle.
Vendors will sell out. They will try to have enough product to last all day but its not guaranteed so come early to make sure you get what you want, but good news its going to be an annual celebration, so if you missed something this year you can come back next year.
We will have over 50 vendors, and while most of them will try to offer either credit card payments / Venmo / Zelle / Apple Pay / etc, some vendors will be cash only so come prepared. If not, an ATM is available at a bank nearby.
We are located at 3700 Osuna Rd NE #515, Albuquerque, NM 87109 , just west of I-25.
Parking is free and will be available behind the Christmas market, just follow the signs. Additional parking will also be available across the street.
Yes, we are going to have security. Schimmel Security Team will be at the event from opening to closing.
Each vendor will make a little basket of their products that will be raffled off at 4pm. Each ticket will cost $2 and all of the profits will go to Saranam, a local organization with a mission to empower families to end their homelessness and poverty through housing, education, and supportive communities.
