Between Karstadt, Thalia Theatre and Perle Passage, Gerhart-Hauptmann-Platz is transformed into a central meeting point at Christmas time. In the traditional winter forest, visitors experience a relaxing break from the hustle and bustle of the city centre and the atmosphere of a real ‘fir forest’ with forest floor underfoot instantly puts them in the Christmas spirit. A varied cultural programme provides entertainment and a good atmosphere.
HAMBURG TAKES A PLACE in the winter forest
Now new: HAMBURG NIMMT PLATZ in the winter forest. In different, atmospheric forest areas, ‘Christmas benches’ designed by artists invite you to linger and relax, which also make a contemplative picture as a photo point.
Christmas fun
The Christmas market on Gerhart-Hauptmann-Platz offers various food stalls to cater for your physical well-being. All the culinary Christmas classics from mulled wine to roasted almonds are on offer. Daily live carol singing at 5 and 6 pm at a height of 10 metres creates a festive atmosphere.
