Trail Full of Christmas Traditions

Gather your family and come together to challenge your minds on a Christmas trail full of quizzes, riddles, and interesting facts about Advent from around the world. At ten locations in the market area, you will search for stations with your children, where tasks await you, and where you will always learn something interesting about Christmas, perhaps from neighbors, but also from those on the other side of the globe. The Christmas adventure will be accessible from November 28 to December 22. This trail was created with the help of www.verdael.cz.

Dogs & Friends

Is there a greater dose of cuteness than your four-legged friend in a Christmas outfit in the photo? Certainly not! So mark the date December 7 and don’t miss the unique opportunity to take photos of pets in their festive attire, so you can later flood your relatives with pictures of your little reindeer.

MULLED WINE & FILM: Piglet? No way, it’s Heavenly Love

A tradition that is inseparable from the Holešovice Market and Advent – Heavenly Love in the winter cinema. And this year will be no different. Outdoor screenings of classic Christmas films will take place every Thursday from November 28 to December 19 on the main promenade. The atmosphere will be enhanced by mulled wine, roasted chestnuts, and other treats to warm you up, as well as goodies from the Food Truck Point, which will operate next to Hall 22 even in winter. Bring your family, friends, and come for Cinderella or the best of Friends. You will soak up the cozy atmosphere at the big screen, chat peacefully with your loved ones, and spend time with those you care about. Because no one should be Home Alone 2 at this time.
