A warm welcome! We are pleased to give you an overview of the numerous offers and events during the Christmas season in Mainz. Last year, the Christmas city of Mainz welcomed many thousands of visitors to the historic Mainz Christmas market and the smaller individual “Mainz WinterZeit” markets on Schillerplatz, Hopfengarten, Bahnhofsvorplatz and in the courtyard of the Electoral Palace. In addition to the Christmas markets, other highlights in the Christmas city included the ice skating rink on the Laubenheimer Höhe and the Christmas family tour in the Mainz State Museum, as well as the unique offers from the restaurants and hotels. But Mainz’s retailers also created a magical atmosphere with great Christmas offers. For the first time, there was the “Mainz Advent Moments” Advent calendar, which presented an event or surprise every day in December.
The “GlühWeinWalk” was also very popular. The ticket included 7x mulled wine and 2x snacks at the Christmas markets in the city. A mainzgefühl mulled wine cup was included free of charge. The ticket was valid on all opening days.
Our tip: Get to know the Mainz Christmas markets better with the “GlühWeinWalk” ticket. The ticket is now available in the mainz STORE and in the online store. For €23 you get 7 x mulled wine and 2 x snacks at the Christmas markets in the city. A mainzgefühl mulled wine cup is included free of charge. The ticket is valid on all opening days.
