Carmel Christkindlemarkt


 Carmel Christkindlemarkt

 

We all have been waiting way too long for the return of the Carmel Christkindlemarkt after it was canceled in 2020. Rated the top Christmas market in Indiana by the Taste of Home Magazine in 2017, with over half a million visitors, we can only expect the return of the Carmel Christkindlemarkt to be something special this year! The Carmel Christkindlemarkt starts on November 20th and goes on until December 24th. Times for the market are Wednesday and Thursday 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm and Friday, Saturday, Sunday 12:00 pm to 9:00 pm, with special hours November 24th, 12:00 pm to 9:00 pm, December 20th through 23rd 12:00 pm to 9:00 pm and December 24th, 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm. The market is located: at 10 Carter Green, Carmel, Indiana.

 

With over 50 different vendors, there is something to do for the whole family. Many of the attractions consist of; food and beverages, gift shops, ice skating, and designated photo spots. Some of the favorite traditional foods you can see at the market are Laugenbrezul (a German pretzel), Wursts (a German specialty sausage), Radette (a German swiss dish), Lebkuchen (a German cookie similar to gingerbread), Stollen (a German fruit bread), and Gluhuen (a hot German mulled wine). There will also be many traditional German gifts like; nutcrackers, pyramids, candle arches, incense smokers, Moravian stars, angels, music boxes, nativities, and ornaments. The Carmel Christkindlemarkt also brought a Gluhwein Pyramid in 2018 that continues to come back. The Gluhwein Pyramid is the 1st of its kind in the United States as well. The ice skating at the market is another attraction that brings in many people. The outdoor rink is like a scene out of a movie. According to many of the reviews of the Carmel Christkindlemarkt Yelp page, the market makes you feel as though you are in a Hallmark movie. The admission to skate for adults, it is $9, for kids, it is $6, and there is a $3 rental fee for skates. Reservations are also recommended for the ice rink since there is only a certain amount of skaters allowed on the rink at once.

 

The Carmel Christkindlemarkt was founded in 2017 by a nonprofit and since has blown up to be, a can’t miss event every holiday season. This year the market will be sponsored by Indiana German Heritage Society, City of Carmel, Ice Miller Legal Counsel, Washington Independent Investment Counsel, Indiana Historical Society, Carmel Clay Schools, Studio M Architecture & Planning, Hotel Carmichael, and CL Coonrod & Co.
