An interesting feature is also the historic giant wheel, which offers a romantic view of the market from above. Visitors can expect a rich cultural program full of Christmas performances, and of course, the original Dresden Christmas stollen, which is a popular delicacy, cannot be missed.

PAM RABBIT: PAM RABBIT IS MY ALTER EGO, I AM PAMELA NARIMANIAN.
She has been composing songs since she was fourteen. The conservatory gave her a foundation, and she worked hard for the rest. What she didn't know, she learned. She first saved up for her initial music videos and then realized them all by herself. She views her voice as a muscle that needs training. Ten years on stage, three years under a label. Two Anděl Awards, four participations in Eurovision. Featured in Forbes, ELLE, and Times Square in New York. And she keeps going. She doesn't waste time; she invests it. When she commits to something, she goes all in. On stage, she's intense, almost electric. In private, she's an introvert who guards her energy. On March 3, she releases her album Planet 33 to the world. And on March 18, she kicks off the Fórum Karlín. Tough yet fragile at the same time. A woman with raven hair and an x-ray gaze.
