Ice Fever on the Lusatian Neisse
The twin city of Guben/Gubin is located directly on the German-Polish border. Every year, the traditional Christmas market on the third Advent transforms Friedrich-Wilke-Platz and the historic Alte Färberei into a winter wonderland.
December 12th and 13th, 2026 — The Motto
In 2026, the market is under the motto "im Eisfieber" (in the ice fever). Live ice sculpting in the market, ice stock sport for young and old, and the speed of the air hockey table playfully incorporate the theme.
Program — What to Expect
- Live ice sculpting right before the visitors' eyes
- Ice stock sport for all age groups
- Air hockey tournament
- Puppet theatre of the Guben City Library
- Creative activities for children
- Brass classes from the Guben Music School and live band on stage
- Fairytale cinema in the City and Industrial Museum on Sunday
- Maskom and Santa Claus will accompany the program
Setting — Friedrich-Wilke-Platz and Alte Färberei
Friedrich-Wilke-Platz is Guben's central city square. The neighboring Alte Färberei (Old Dye House) recalls Guben's history as a textile city — and during Christmas, it's an atmospheric indoor space for concerts and children's programs.
Organizer
The organizer is the City of Guben in cooperation with local associations, the music school, and the City and Industrial Museum.
