About Tiergarten-Weihnacht

The Stadtwerke Zoo Neustrelitz transforms into the stage for a very special Christmas market during Advent: the Tiergarten-Weihnacht. While the winter season bathes the park in atmospheric light from late October until just before Christmas, a main Christmas market weekend in December forms the highlight. Between the animal enclosures, you can discover market stalls, a festive atmosphere, and a family program – hosted by the well-known KiKA personality Christian Bahrmann. Admission to the Christmas market is free, and the stroll through the wintry zoo combines a nature experience with Advent spirit.

Christmas Market in the Zoo

The Tiergarten-Weihnacht is a Christmas market in the Stadtwerke Zoo of Neustrelitz, the baroque residence town in the Mecklenburg Lake District (state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern). The zoo, operated by Stadtwerke Neustrelitz, is a popular destination all year round – and in Advent, the Tiergarten-Weihnacht adds a special attraction.

An Entire Winter Season

From the end of October, the zoo kicks off its winter season, presenting itself in atmospheric design until shortly before Christmas. The highlight is a dedicated main Christmas market weekend at the beginning of December, when market stalls, festive decorations, and a varied program bring the park to life.

Family Program with Christian Bahrmann

The Tiergarten-Weihnacht is particularly aimed at families. The program is hosted by the well-known KiKA presenter Christian Bahrmann, who ensures sparkling eyes with children's entertainment. The walk between the enclosures, past the animals, makes the visit an experience that combines a classic Christmas market with the charm of a zoo.

Advent Excursion for the Whole Family

With free admission to the Christmas market, the Tiergarten-Weihnacht is an attractive excursion destination during Advent. It complements Neustrelitz's rich Christmas offerings – from the courtyard magic in the city center to the region's markets – with an experience in nature.
