This German festival promises Instagram photos that sleigh.
Ready to get into the seasonal spirit with a standout Christmas event? Grab your favourite jumper and snow hat because the Frankfurt Christmas Market is back with the earliest start date ever this year, swapping its first Thursday of November tradition for even earlier in the month.
What Is Birmingham's Frankfurt Christmas Market?
Known as the largest German Christmas market outside of Germany or Austria, the pop-up will be jam-packed with entertainment and stalls to explore. Catch live performances from both international and local musicians while sipping mulled wine or warming hot chocolate.
If that doesn’t wet your whistle, check out the tempting treats being offered, from bratwursts and salted pretzels to roasted almonds and classic schnitzels. Finish off with chocolaty crêpes – something yule go nuts for.
Since it's the season for gift giving too, make your Christmas shopping a little less last-minute by nabbing handcrafted décor and glass baubles at a slew of independent stalls.
