Tips & Advice

  • Visit on Sunday if you want to combine the market with shopping, because downtown Schleiz stores are planned to open that day.
  • Check the stage during your visit, because a Christmas cultural program plays there on all three market days.
  • Walk around the edges of the Neumarkt too, because nearby shops and venues run their own program alongside the market.
  • Throw your cups and wrappers in the bins, because the market has no cup deposit system.
