New York City Christmas Markets

The markets offer a unique old-world experience that you can’t find anywhere else. You’ll feel like you’re in Germany or another European country. The markets are open from late November to early January.
There are several different markets throughout the city, so be sure to visit more than one. You’ll get to experience so much more when you visit multiple markets! The markets will feature handmade crafts, delicious food, and festive drinks.
If you’re looking for some unique holiday gifts this year, NYC Christmas Markets are a great place to find them.
The best part about going to these types of events in New York City? They are free! Many cities charge a fee or require tickets for popular activities like this, but not in New York City. This makes it super easy if budgeting is already an issue for your family before heading out on vacation.
