Dates and hours from the official page, checked 2026-11-03. Organisers can change them, so check the official link before you go. Not affiliated with any market.
Each market keeps its 2026 dates, its weekly hours and its exceptions (opening day, Christmas Eve, Totensonntag) as the official page writes them. For the day you pick, a market is open if the day falls in its season and that day has hours. An exception always beats the weekly rule.
The line on the map counts the markets open that day in your city and gives the latest closing time. If none is open, it says when the next one opens. "Today" is the date in Central Europe, even if your phone is set to another time zone.
Unknown stays unknown
If a page doesn't give the hours for a day (Gendarmenmarkt on 31 December, for example), the map says "check" instead of guessing. If an organiser hasn't published 2026 yet, the pin sits in fog and the card says so. We never copy last year's dates into this year.
Berlin's and Vienna's open-data lists still describe the 2025 season. Those markets show their 2025 dates, marked as last season, until their own page publishes 2026.
Near me and the trip planner
Near me measures the straight-line distance from where your browser says you are. The position stays on your device: it isn't sent, stored or put in the link. The trip planner takes up to four stops with dates and shows every day as a numbered turn with its closing time.
