About St. George's Christmas Market

Once a year, on the second Saturday of Advent, the Anglican St. George's Church in Berlin-Westend transforms into an English Christmas market. British and German exhibitors sell English books, DVDs, toys, tea, traditional sweets like Mince Pies and Plum Pudding. Bagpipe music, communal Christmas Carol singing with organ accompaniment, and a tombola are part of the programme. Free admission – a compact piece of English Christmas tradition right in the heart of Charlottenburg.

A Very British Christmas in Westend

The Anglican St. George's Episcopal Church on Preußenallee in Berlin-Westend is one of the oldest English-speaking congregations in Germany. Once a year, on a Saturday in Advent, it opens its doors for the traditional English Christmas Market. It's a decidedly small, charming market – no Ferris wheel, no bratwurst stand, but Mince Pies, English tea, British books, and Christmas Carols.

What's on Offer

British and German exhibitors offer: English books and DVDs (a main draw for many), English children's books and toys, traditional Christmas Pudding and Mince Pies, jams, tea, gingerbread, jewellery, crafts, decorations. The church also has a food corner with British cakes, sandwiches, and sherry punch.

Atmosphere and Programme

Inside the church, bagpipers from Berlin Pipe Bands perform. The congregation invites you to join in communal Christmas Carol singing with organ accompaniment – a format that attracts many English-speaking Berliners: diplomatic families, British expats, German English students, and lovers of British Christmas culture. A tombola with British prizes runs throughout the day.

Berlin-Westend – the quiet diplomatic corner

Westend is part of the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district and lies between Kaiserdamm, Olympiapark, and Grunewald. Preußenallee is one of the elegant residential streets, with villas from the 1920s and 30s. St. George's belongs to the small network of English-speaking communities in Berlin and is a meeting point for expats even outside of the market.

St. George's Christmas Market — edition 2026

As every year, the St. George's Anglican Episcopal Church's English Christmas Market will take place in December 2026. The exact date – traditionally an Advent Saturday – will be announced by the organiser in autumn 2026. British and German exhibitors, Christmas Carols, bagpipe music, and English Christmas specialities are expected. Free admission.

The English Christmas Market at St. George's Anglican Episcopal Church has been a fixture on Berlin's Advent calendar for years. The event is planned again for 2026; the exact date (traditionally an Advent Saturday afternoon) will be announced by the organiser in autumn.
