Weihnachtsmarkt Jever

20,000 LED lights on the Alter Markt

The Jever Christmas market is a visual highlight. 20,000 LED lights are spread across the Alter Markt and surrounding streets, bathing the historic town center in a warm, fairytale-like glow. The staging is one of the most elaborate in the region.

Half-timbered stalls with arts and crafts

The typical half-timbered stalls of the Christmas markets host artisans with regional products: woodwork, ceramics, jewelry, candles, Christmas decorations, textiles. Food stalls offer mulled wine, eggnog, bratwurst, gingerbread, potato pancakes, and Frisian specialties.

Children's carousel and St. Nicholas visits

A classic children's carousel brings joy to little ones. St. Nicholas visits the market several times during the market season, distributing small gifts to the young guests.

Advent concerts

Advent concerts – choirs, brass bands, bands – regularly provide musical highlights. The exact dates will be published in the program by the City of Jever.

Long opening hours

With opening hours from Sunday to Thursday 12 PM to 8 PM and Friday to Saturday 12 PM to 9 PM, the market is open almost daily, offering numerous opportunities for a visit. Its run time of almost five weeks makes it one of the longest Christmas markets in Lower Saxony.

Marienstadt as a backdrop

The historic city center of the Marienstadt – with its castle, brewery, and half-timbered houses – provides a beautiful backdrop for the Christmas market. Many visitors combine their market visit with a stroll through the city.
