Christmas begins in Haarlem!
From Friday, December 8th, to Sunday, December 10th, 2023, the city center of Haarlem will once again be transformed into the coziest Christmas market in the Netherlands. Following the tremendous success of last year, we are approaching it grandly again this year!
This year, the Christmas market will feature nearly 350 stalls spread across 12 locations in the city center. The Schagchelstraat will be transformed into the Straatje van Emma, where you’ll step back in time to a real 19th-century Christmas celebration, and the Kleine Houtstraat will be entirely in the style of the Middle Ages.
During the Christmas market, we have a very extensive entertainment program. Especially on Saturday and Sunday, entertainment will be in full swing with numerous performances in the city center, both indoors and outdoors. Friday is for visitors who want to explore the Christmas market in a more relaxed atmosphere.
The Christmas market winds its way through the city center!
Kruisstraat from Nieuwe Gracht, Krocht, Nieuwe Groenmarkt, Zijlstraat from Nieuwe Groenmarkt to Grote Markt, Grote Markt, Riviervismarkt, Klokhuisplein, Oude Groenmarkt, Schagchelstraat, Kleine Houtstraat, Anegang, Koningstraat, Botermarkt, Gierstraat, Proveniersplein and Grote Houtstraat.
