Edition 2025 — Wintermarkt StrandPauli
The Wintermarkt StrandPauli 2025/26 ran from early November 2025 to mid-February 2026 – Hamburg's longest Christmas market format. On the beach club grounds between Landungsbrücken and the fish market, open fires and hundreds of illuminated fir trees transformed the area into a winter harbour oasis.
The culinary offerings ranged from the classic mulled wine and kale-with-bratwurst stand to the à la carte menu in the heated Hacienda pavilion, featuring fondue, Hamburg's Pannfisch, and pizza. The Bavarian ski lodge was again a popular setting for corporate Christmas parties. Three seating options – open-air by the fire, covered beach area, or indoor – made the market weather-independent.
