Lichtenberger Winterzeit

About Lichtenberger Winterzeit

The Christmas market on Landsberger Allee – also called Lichtenberger Winterzeit – is one of the largest winter funfairs in East Berlin. The site at Landsberger Allee 300 in the Lichtenberg district transforms into a winter wonderland between early November and late December, featuring twelve large rides, including a Ferris wheel, a Christmas flight roller coaster, and a children's roller coaster. Mulled wine, waffles, bratwurst, and other festive specialties complement the offerings. A children's day on Wednesdays offers reduced ride prices for families. The market replaces the Wintertraum at Alexa, which closed in 2017, as Berlin's major Christmas funfair.

Berlin's Christmas Funfair in the East

The Weihnachtsmarkt Landsberger Allee – also known as Lichtenberger Winterzeit – has been one of Berlin's largest winter funfairs for several years. The venue is the area at Landsberger Allee 300 in the Lichtenberg district, directly on the tram axis between the city center and Hohenschönhausen.

Twelve Large Rides

Around twelve large rides are located on the festival grounds. At the center: a Ferris wheel offering views over Lichtenberg and Friedrichshain. In addition, a Weihnachtsflug roller coaster, a children's roller coaster, classic carousels, a swing carousel, and a haunted house. Stalls with traditional festive specialties line the edge of the square: mulled wine, punch, candied almonds, bratwurst, waffles, and Lángos.

Children's Day on Wednesdays

A conscious family focus: Wednesdays are Children's Day, with reduced ride prices for children. This positions the market differently from the purely tourist attractions in the eastern city center and engages families from the surrounding residential areas of Lichtenberg, Hohenschönhausen, and Fennpfuhl.

Successor to Wintertraum

The market sees itself as the successor to the popular Berlin Wintertraum, which ran at the Alexa Center on Alexanderplatz until 2017. With its relocation to the east, the format has been moved to a transport hub with excellent public transport connections – tram lines M6, M8, and 16 stop directly at the site.
