Christmas Garden

Christmas Garden Hamburg transforms the Loki-Schmidt-Garten (Botanical Garden of the University of Hamburg) into an enchanting illuminated wonderland from mid-November through early January. This unique Christmas experience offers a magical two-kilometer circular walking route through the botanical gardens, featuring millions of twinkling lights, spectacular light installations, and immersive sound worlds that create an unforgettable winter atmosphere. Unlike traditional Christmas markets, this is a walk-through light spectacle where visitors can explore glittering displays, colorful projections, and artistic illuminations set against the natural beauty of the gardens. The experience includes themed light zones, interactive installations, and festive music that accompanies you throughout the journey. Gastronomy stations along the route offer seasonal treats and warm beverages to enhance your visit. The event operates on a timed-entry system with 30-minute entry windows to ensure a comfortable, uncrowded experience for all guests. Located in the Klein Flottbek district and easily accessible via S-Bahn (S1 and S11) and bus lines (21 and 115), Christmas Garden Hamburg has become one of the city's most popular winter attractions. The venue offers special family days with discounted rates, making it an ideal destination for visitors of all ages.
