Experience the authentic charm of Christmas in Germany right here in Indiana at the Carmel Christkindlmarkt.

At the Market, visitors can browse a variety of products sourced from Germany and neighboring German-speaking European countries. Traditional German foods, beverages, and gifts are displayed and sold from small wooden huts by dozens of vendors. A gorgeous outdoor ice skating rink made with real ice invites visitors to glide across its smooth surface, surrounded by the cozy atmosphere and bustle of the Market.

Every year, the Market strives to bring new and exciting, authentic offerings to its visitors, ensuring there’s something different to explore each year. In 2018, we introduced our iconic Glühwein Pyramid – remarkably, the first of its kind to exist in the United States.
