Checked, not guessed

81 sleeps until Christmas

Every date checked against the official source

Christmas markets, checked — not guessed

Plenty of sites list Christmas markets. Most of them are quietly showing last year's dates. We check every one with the organiser, stamp it with the date we did, and tell you plainly when a market hasn't announced yet.

81 sleeps to go

Checked at the source

Every date comes from the organiser or an official announcement, never from another listings site. Each listing is stamped with the day we checked it.

Honest about the gaps

If a market hasn't announced, we say so — we don't fill the gap with last year's dates. See what we're waiting on
