Berliner Glühwald

Christmas Market in Berlin from 4 November 2023

The Christmas market at Uber Platz offers enough space for indoors and outdoors. The cosy atmosphere is underlined by the smell of woods and open fires and all kinds of hot drinks.

Once a wasteland with rotten storage sheds, office ruins and disused railway tracks, Uber Platz will become a lively urban quarter in the coming years. Directly opposite the East Side Gallery, the square has been greened and illuminated and, together with the Uber Arena, has become increasingly attractive as a venue for events.

Wide range of culinary delights

The spacious area in front of the Uber Arena now enjoys a very special magic in the run-up to Christmas. A wide variety of hot drinks and, of course, culinary pre-Christmas dishes await you in the Glühwald. The cosy atmosphere created by the covered and heated mangers is rounded off by a Christmas decoration and lighting concept and suitable music.
