Christmas Avenue — LGBTQIA* Christmas Market Berlin
2025
Edition 2025 — Finished
Edition 2025 — Christmas Avenue
The 2025 season further established Christmas Avenue as a central queer meeting point during Berlin's Advent season. For four weeks, the market under the elevated railway at Nollendorfplatz offered a daily stage program — from drag shows to live music to DJ sets — as well as themed evenings like Drag Bingo, Drag Karaoke, and Schlager Avenue.
The mulled wine bar and the handmade stalls offered a curated selection beyond tourist clichés. Payment was exclusively by card, and the security concept remained explicitly queer-sensitive. In 2025, numerous groups also booked the private party booths for birthdays and company celebrations.
