On SANTA PAULI, between November 10th and December 23rd, the boundaries between classic Christmas traditions and the frivolous Kiez lifestyle blur. SANTA PAULI attracts visitors with live music and sizzling angels on the show stage. The market stalls offer everything you’d expect from a Kiez Christmas market – including erotic gift ideas. And for those who want to enjoy the view of the bustling nightlife with a hot drink after shopping, the Winterdeck is the perfect spot. Here, drinks like “Bordsteinschwalben” or “Nussknacker” are served, with new specials created every year.
SANTA PAULI is the Christmas market for everyone looking forward to a (sensually) festive season.
SANTA PAULI takes place annually from mid-November to December 23rd in the heart of St. Pauli, right next to Schmidt Theater, Schmidts Tivoli, and Operettenhaus. Entry is free.

Solution: enter Spielbudenplatz as destination. And maybe ask Google what that’s about…
