Poznań is a special place to be for the winter holidays and festive season, which kick off locally as early as mid-November. During 'Poznań Bethlehem' (Betlejem Poznańskie) - the banner under which the city organises its annual Christmas events - the city beats back the winter gloom with festive holiday decorations, Christmas markets, cultural events, hearty comfort food, mulled wine and beer, and a magical atmosphere throughout the Old Town.

The biggest highlights each year are undoubtedly the lighting of the city's Christmas tree, the Poznań Christmas Markets and the Poznań Ice Festival. This year (2024-25) - after several years of renovations on Stary Rynek - the city looks to reset and resume some kind of steady order to their holiday celebrations. Although the city's Christmas market occupied Stary Rynek in the pre-pandemic, pre-renovation years, five years of comfortably hosting two separate markets on Plac Wolności and the Poznań International Trade Fair complex have convinced the city not to upset the routine. With the Rynek ready for service, however, the Poznań Ice Festival makes its triumphant return to ther centre of the Old Town, ensuring that the festive spirit will be soaring throughout the Old Town. Look for holiday festivities in the following locations during the following dates, and follow the links for more information:
