Heissa Holzmarkt – Winter Market on the Spree
2025
Edition 2025 — Finished
Edition 2025 — Heissa Holzmarkt
The 2025 edition ran for five weekends and followed the established Holzmarkt concept: crafts on one side of the courtyard, international street food on the other, plus an indoor playground and circus workshops for children. A specialty compared to the large Berlin city center markets: fewer stalls, but more artisanal products and a clear curatorial mission.
The admission model with free weekdays was maintained in 2025 and ensured – as intended – spread-out visitor flows. Mulled wine, Lángos, burritos, and Käsespätzle formed the market's culinary classics. The 2025 season laid the groundwork for the upcoming 2026 edition.
