Tips & Advice

  • Book an Eisstockschießen lane ahead, because last year lanes in Cologne were fully booked by early November and many of those players came here.
  • Park in the Luminaden garage at Wöhlerstrasse 22, which puts you directly underneath the market stalls.
  • Note that the market is closed on Totensonntag, 22 November, and from 24 to 26 December, so plan your visit around those dates.
  • Stay on after shopping if you like, since the mulled-wine huts keep serving later than the rest of the market stalls.
  • Take the S6, RE 1 or RE 5 to Leverkusen-Mitte if you'd rather skip driving, as the station is right by the market.

Special Events & Promotions

  • New this year: two Eisstockschießen lanes at Wolter's Sportbar, bookable for groups of up to 8.
  • Company and group Christmas parties with reserved tables for 12–60 people, Genuss-Coupons and a single company invoice.
  • 30 new free places in the Sozialhütte Zwo social hut, funded by Sparkasse Leverkusen.
