The Szczecin Christmas Market, beloved by residents and tourists, will last from 2 to 22 December. Three squares in the center of Szczecin – Aleja Kwiatowa, Plac Adamowicza and Plac Lotnikow, will take you to the magical time of longing for Christmas. In addition, during weekends the Fair will be also located at the Boguslaw Promenade.
There’s no better way to end the year 2022. The Szczecin Christmas Market will again introduce the magic of Christmas into the urban space. On December 2-22, the very center of the city will turn into a land full of Christmas surprises. Wooden houses will appear, and in them Szczecin entrepreneurs (craftsmen and gastronomy) with their products. You will be able to do Christmas shopping, taste tasty, regional products, find a perfect Christmas gift or drink hot chocolate or mulled wine in special Szczecin cups.
What would a Christmas Market be without Christmas attractions, Christmas trees and Santa Claus? The unique atmosphere during the Fair will be ensured by beautiful Christmas decorations, embellished with Christmas songs that will resound from the radio station. There will also be special Christmas animations for every age.

The main attractions of the Christmas Market in Szczecin 2022:
Christmas treats
Characteristic wooden houses, and in them only goodness. Delicious homemade preserves, bread, selected cold cuts, honey and nuts and dried fruit perfect for Christmas baking, or ready-made sweets. Dumplings, takeaway dishes, noodles or baked potatoes – these smells will float over our Fair and tempt many a gourmand. Among this year’s exhibitors we will find not only regular visitors, but also new entrepreneurs who will want to surprise us with their products.
Unique gifts
Something small for friends, something special for a husband, something practical for grandparents and colorful for children – there will be, we guarantee! The offer of Christmas gifts will be very rich. The stands will feature wooden gifts and toys, hand-made jewelry, occasional outfits, unusual clothes, unique tea compositions, cosmetics, books and board games. If you still have no ideas for gifts, come to the fair, and you will certainly find something for your loved ones here.
The Mill Wheel and the Venetian Carousel
This has never been seen at the Fair! Thanks to the 15-meter Mill Wheel, you will see the festive Szczecin from above. You will find the wheel at the end of Kwiatowa Avenue – near the sundial. At Adamowicz Square, you can take advantage of the charming Venetian carousel, which will take you on a unique, fairy-tale journey.
SELFie points
Are there any local influencers here? If so, at the Fair you will find something that will be perfect for posts, reports and reels! Look for Christmas photo points well, and your reports will have a lot of likes and hearts. Ah, don’t forget to tag #szczecińskijarmark!
Bombkodzielnia
If you are planning to change the “outfit” of your home Christmas trees, we invite you to Bombkodzielnia. Come with your old baubles and choose something new for yourself. This Christmas in Szczecin’s homes will be fashionable and ecological!
Replace the old light with a new light
What to do with unnecessary Christmas lights? You can, for example, bring them to the Szczecin Christmas Fair. In one of the houses, the hostesses will accept used Christmas tree lights, and in return they will give you a bauble.
Conifers for delicacies
If you also face a choice: buy a Christmas tree or do a good deed? You don’t have to bother anymore! On the last day of the Fair, bring animal feed to us and you will receive a wonderful conifer as a thank you. The number of Christmas trees is limited.
Rudolph needs your help
Rudolph! But you’re staring! This helper of St. Santa was so rushing with presents that he lost them all. Find them all, photograph them, and for your exemplary help to Rudolf you will receive a Christmas magnet.
Christmas Quiz
Gather your team and test your Christmas knowledge. Movies, legends, customs or dishes, do you know them all?
Letters to seniors
A kind word is enough to make someone feel better. Let’s not forget about those who will spend Christmas alone – let’s write letters to them, lots of letters! Come to the fair, write a few warm words, and the helpers of St. Santa will deliver letters to lonely seniors.
Reading fairy tales
Famous citizens of Szczecin will also visit the Fair and read many Christmas stories to the youngest.
To dance and to mulled wine!
Friday, Friday, Friday. It is on Friday evenings that great DJs appear on our stage. Drop by for mulled wine and our fair dance floor, where good fun is guaranteed.
Christmas trees of schools
Eager schools decorated some of the fair Christmas trees. This living gallery is a unique inspiration for all fans of decorating conifers.
Santa Claus’ day
Not in Lapland and not in California. Santa Claus will spend his name day at the Szczecin Christmas Market. Celebrating the saint’s name day will be enriched by workshops on creating reindeer horns.
Live music
A festively decorated stage with concerts, choir performances and carol singing. Let Szczecin hear that Christmas is coming!
