Christmas tree on New Street by the Birmingham Frankfurt Christmas Market
BIRMINGHAM'S renowned Frankfurt Christmas Market is in full swing and we've got all the key information to ensure you make the most of your festive visit.
This year’s 25th annual market features 60 beautifully decorated stalls serving German food and drink, including hot gluhwein, schnitzel, bratwurst, alongside a wide array of handcrafted gifts, decorations, toys and jewellery.
During the festivities, the Victoria Square bandstand will host a vibrant programme of performances of German musicians and upcoming Brummie performers.
The German musicians will perform weekday lunchtimes and evenings daily, with locals performing between noon and 6pm on Saturdays and Sundays.
On Mondays, there are open mic invitations, with the best two acts given the opportunity to perform in a prime-time December slot.
