In Germany, Christmas markets or Christkindlmarkts, are prevalent and filled with Christmas wonder. People from all over Germany and the world flock to the markets to shop, dine, and enjoy the many wonders of local artisans and vendors. From this time-honored tradition, the German-American Society of Tulsa's Christkindlmarkt was born. Nestled in the heart of midtown Tulsa, the market features over twenty local vendors and artisans with unique wares, imported goods, authentic German food, Glühwein, a children's area, Bethlehem village display, and as much Christmas splendor as can be had. The market is held inside so that rain or shine it is open. Admission and parking are free to all guests.

Our outdoor Tree Lighting ceremony this year is on Thursday December 3 from 6 to 8pm. This pre-event to the market opening on Friday is a community event open to everyone. There will be hot chocolate and cider, music, carols, and of course the ceremonial first lighting of our outdoor tree and lights.

Join us for the market and our tree lighting ceremony! Shop, dine, and celebrate the Christmas season in style!
