If there’s one time of year when Brussels truly shines, it’s during the holiday season. The city transforms into a glowing winter wonderland filled with festive lights, cozy wooden chalets, and the irresistible scent of chocolate and waffles. The Brussels Christmas Market, also known as Winter Wonders, is one of Europe’s most enchanting holiday experiences; and it’s right at your doorstep.
The Winter Wonders of Brussels
From November 28th to January 5th, the city’s heart comes alive with festive cheer. The Brussels Christmas Market stretches from the Grand-Place to the Place Sainte-Catherine and the Bourse, creating a magical trail of over 200 wooden chalets offering handmade gifts, Belgian delicacies, and cozy Christmas vibes.
