‘Getting Into the Holiday Spirit At The Christmas Village’

When you start to work on your holiday shopping, this is the place to check out, with over 70 vendors in wooden booths offering you a great experience of shopping in Philadelphia.

The Christmas Village in Philadelphia is an outside Holiday market event in Center City Philadelphia, which is modeled after the traditional Christmas Markets in Germany. Here you can shop at the iconic plaza LOVE Park!

You’ll be able to get a sneak peak on November 20 and 21. The Village officially opens on Thanksgiving Day, November 25 and will continue until December 24. The official opening ceremony will be on Sunday, November 28 at 3 pm.

The village will be selling anything from ornaments, high-quality arts and crafts, international gifts, jewelry, and much more. You’ll also be overwhelmed by the aroma of traditional European foods, sweets, and drinks.
