About this event
A first-time Christmas market with nine huts lined up outdoors at a shopping complex by the station. The idea is not just to look at lights but to eat, drink and take your time, with food and drinks served to carry and an eat-in area to enjoy them. There is a booth where you build your own hot cocoa with toppings of your choice, plus carts selling Christmas goods. A warm cocoa break between shopping seems like a nice way to use it.
