About this event
A Christmas market recreating traditional German culture will be held again this year. Visitors can enjoy "winter beauty" handed down through centuries in the streets of Yamagata, featuring hymns resonating in the night sky and the aroma of warm glühwein. The venue is decorated with distinctive Christmas ornaments, creating a market reminiscent of authentic Germany. At the photo spots, guests can enjoy illuminations that create a beautiful Christmas atmosphere. An original mug cup with a design that changes every year will also be on sale. Shops filled with Christmas sundries and carefully selected gourmet food will be set up, offering a rich lineup of winter entertainment including a lighting ceremony, concerts, and workshops. Heartwarming, gentle, and gorgeous music will also color the venue. Admission is free on weekdays and paid on weekends (includes an exclusive weekend-admission design mug cup).
