ChristKindl German Christmas Market + St. Jacobs Farmers MarketEvery Christmas, since medieval times, towns and cities across Germany come alive with the sights, sounds and smells of Christmas. Kitchener City Hall is home to Canada's original Christkindl Market - since 1997 and once again it has been awarded "Top 100 Festivals & Events in Ontario." Shop outside and inside from 90 vendors while you listen to choirs, bands and dance groups. Take in the train room, blacksmith demonstrations, live nativity and visit with the folkloric characters. Don't forget to enjoy Gluhwein, sweet and savoury Christmas foods to eat or take home or wrap up for gift giving.
Our day also includes a visit to the St. Jacobs Farmers' Market, one of the largest markets in Ontario with hundreds of vendors selling just about everything. |

Tour Highlights
ChristKindl German Christmas Market
Christkindl Market offers a one-of-a kind holiday shopping experience and in celebration of its 22nd Anniversary, it has expanded to more than 90 food and gift vendors – many of whom are clustered within tiny huts in Civic Square. Grab a bratwurst, schnitzel or pretzel and stroll the Square to find unique, European-themed gifts and decorations you won’t find in a chain store. Like the outdoor markets in Germany, the irresistible smells of fresh baked pastries, traditional mulled Glühwein and stick-to-your-ribs German cuisine cooked outside in the open air will have you drooling.
There is a continuous lineup of entertainment on the stage set up directly outside city hall. Choirs, dancers, singers and sing-alongs to definitely put you in the mood for Christmas.

St. Jacobs Farmers Market
St. Jacobs Farmers’ Market & Flea Market is said to be Canada’s largest farmers market with over 500 vendors.
You'll find fresh fruits and vegetables, meats, cheese, baking of every description, crafts galore, plus local "delicacies" like sausage, apple fritters and pure maple syrup. You'll also find home-grown produce brought from local Mennonite farms by horse and buggy. If brand name shopping is more your pleasure, The St. Jacobs Outlets Mall is right next door as is the Market Road Antiques for those of you who are thrilled by old treasures. |
