Set against the backdrop of the Willibrordi-Dom, this market brings together local clubs, associations, and charitable institutions presenting a variety of self-made products. Guests can browse festive decorations, participate in a community Christmas sing-along, and watch the award ceremony for the most creative stall presentation.
