Hanover Christmas Markets 2026 – Markets in the City and Region

Christmas pyramid at Kröpcke

The wings of the Christmas pyramid will be spinning at Kröpcke from November 23 through January 3 (tentatively). The 18-meter-tall structure is considered the unofficial symbol of Christmas in Hanover.

In cooperation with the City-Gemeinschaft, the Veranstaltungsteam Hannover e.K. (Aulich) is once again operating the world’s largest walk-through Christmas pyramid this year at Kröpcke in Hanover. From the pyramid’s walk-through, fully staffed second floor, visitors can enjoy a view of both the Christmas market on the station forecourt and the gate on the World’s Fair Square, which serves as the entrance to the Christmas market surrounding the Marktkirche.
