Santa Pauli 2025 – Review

In 2025, Santa Pauli opened again punctually in mid-November on Spielbudenplatz. For six weeks, the alternative-erotic Christmas market concept ran in the heart of the Reeperbahn – with a stage program of burlesque, strip shows, and live music, with mulled wine cocktails at the Winterdeck Bar, and with "Santas Glühweinapotheke" for custom-mixed hot drinks.

The positive outcome – hundreds of thousands of visitors over the six weeks – led to the immediate extension of the format: in 2026, Santa Pauli will run again, supplemented by the new SafeNow safety zone.
