Peaceful Advent at the Holešovice Market: classic films in the winter cinema, the scent of punch, and shopping for original little gifts for under the Christmas tree.

You will find a pleasant Christmas calm, as every year, during the Advent season starting from November 28 at the Holešovice Market. You can look forward to well-known classics such as mulled wine & movies with Christmas blockbusters, shopping for fresh food for the Christmas table in Hall 22, treats with a hint of cinnamon at the Food Truck Point, the sale of eco-friendly Christmas trees without packaging, or the sale of live carp. In close proximity to Hall 22, you can buy small gifts for under the tree at a cozy intimate market, discover new secrets every day with your children in the large Advent calendar, or embark on a Christmas adventure with your family and help Johanka bring back the Christmas magic. You shouldn't miss the winter edition of Dogs & Friends, where you can take photos of your four-legged friends in Christmas outfits.

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.

Shopping for the Christmas Table from Hall 22 and Holešovice Bethlehem

Without crowds and the pushing of huge carts, you can shop peacefully in Hall 22 as every year. Just like throughout the year, you will find quality ingredients here, especially from Czech farmers and other verified suppliers from both Czechia and abroad. In the pre-Christmas season, of course, there will be a selection of classics for the Christmas Eve table; you can buy carp, vegetables for salad and soup, cheeses, nuts, and baking ingredients. This year, you can also spice up your shopping with a visit to the felted Bethlehem, which will be on display here from November to December.

*Films will be screened in their original version with Czech subtitles.
