What visitors sayGoogle 4.5 ★ · 122 reviews
Visitors like that the Frankfurt market stretches far through the city centre: from the Römer with the big tree via the Hauptwache to the Ferris wheel. On the Roßmarkt the chalets stand in a circle, so you quickly find everything. Praised are the food on every corner and fair prices for lángos and mulled wine; criticism concerns mass-produced goods at some stalls and the crowds on Saturday evening.
The liveliest part of the Frankfurt Christmas market - good for a stroll with friends, for families with small children better on a weekday.

What visitors sayGoogle 4.5 ★ · 67 reviews
Praised are the cosy atmosphere in the Old Town, the good food and that you can walk there from the main station. On Saturday evenings you are pushed along in the crowd. Some miss children's carousels and find too many food stalls and mass-produced goods.
Lovely for an evening in the Old Town - for calm, come on a weekday afternoon.

Pink Christmas Market Frankfurt (Rosa Weihnachtsmarkt)
🎉 With friendsWhat's there
- Small queer market in Frankfurt city centre
- Feuerzangenbowle (flaming punch)
- Colourful, exuberant mood
What visitors say
Cosy, colourful and the "quirkiest" part of the Frankfurt Christmas market - not only for an LGBTQI audience. The Feuerzangenbowle is praised; some snack stalls are not.
A cheerful change from the big Römerberg market.
