Winterhuder Weihnachtstreff

The Winterhuder Weihnachtstreff brings a cozy, neighborhood Christmas market experience to Hamburg's charming Winterhude district. Since its premiere in 2021, this intimate market has carved out a special niche by focusing on regional, fair trade, and organic products that reflect the community's values. Located on the Winterhuder Marktplatz, this micro-market offers a refreshing alternative to Hamburg's larger Christmas markets, creating a warm gathering place where locals and visitors can enjoy authentic seasonal traditions. The centerpiece is the Lütte Eck punch hut, serving classic Glühwein alongside creative house-made specialties like apple and cranberry punch, plus Boddenpunsch for those seeking something different. The market's commitment to sustainability and social responsibility shines through its emphasis on regional and fair trade products, while charitable initiatives like "Advent im Schuhkarton" (Advent in a Shoebox) collect donations for those in need, including support for "Knack den Krebs" cancer research. The Holsteiner food stand offers hearty options like the popular Ferkelbox, complementing the sweet treats available throughout the market. With its relaxed atmosphere and extended evening hours, the Wintertreff is perfect for an after-work gathering with colleagues or a family outing. The market expands on days when the regular weekly market isn't operating, giving visitors even more space to explore this delightful neighborhood celebration.
