EVENT SCHEDULE

The VII Pärnu Christmas Market will take place on 19–21 December 2025 at Pärnu Independence Square!

The lights will shine once more on Independence Square, songs will ring out, and true Christmas joy will blossom.
For three festive days, the heart of the city will be filled with music, surprises and warm moments that create a genuine holiday spirit.
When Christmas carols echo through the streets and the scent of gingerbread fills the air, 
it is time to gather by the most beautiful Christmas tree in town.

This year, the market opens on Friday, giving everyone the chance to enjoy the Christmas buzz for three consecutive days.

THE CHRISTMAS MARKET IS OPEN
FRIDAY, 16:00–20:00
SATURDAY, 10:00–18:00
SUNDAY, 10:00–16:00

The cheerful programme includes live performances by artists such as Ott Leppland, Nele-Liis Vaiksoo and many others.
For the first time, the Grand Christmas Sing-Along will take place right in the middle of the market, bringing beloved Christmas songs to life through the voices of local choirs. Visitors, choirs and ensembles alike are invited to join in the singing, making it a truly communal celebration of Christmas.

On Sunday, young singers from Jana Trink Music School will present their traditional Christmas concert.
The same evening will also feature a special St. Thomas’ Day performance and a spectacular fire show by the fire theatre Zerkala, directed by Barbara Lehtna.

Stroll through the stalls to find unique gifts, taste delicious treats and enjoy the festive atmosphere in the very heart of Pärnu.
Santa Claus, Teddy from the Tartu University Hospital Children’s Foundation, and the mischievous Grinch – always a crowd favourite – will also be there to spread joy.

Come and discover the Pärnu Christmas Market – where the holiday spirit comes alive! The cultural programme and entry are FREE.
