December is the season for glühwein, Christmas decorations, and Winter markets! As the temperature drops, there’s nothing Berliners need more than cosy indoor activities to stay warm and inspired. We’ve compiled a list of the best Winter markets happening in Berlin this weekend (01.–03.12.2023). It’s all happening in Kreuzberg. Studio Linné’s Holiday Market will be showcasing the work of Berlin-based designers and curators. With designer fashion, vintage, glassware, knitwear, and so much more, this is one market not to be missed. Stop by on Friday evening (01.12.) to catch DJ sets by Refuge Worldwide. Avoid the last-minute stress and get your Holiday shopping in early at Helka Ceramnics Gift Shop. Shop Helka’s handmade dinnerware and ceramic objects, Sac Objects knitted creations using deadstock materials, and Oni Studio recycled silver and gold jewellery. DAMV Architektur is transforming its office space to host the DAMV Design Shop Xmas Edition. Discover interior design objects, ceramics, and fashion accessories. You’ll also get the opportunity to mingle with local creatives while enjoying a glühwein or steamy apple punch. If you’re not shopped off your feet yet, head over to Mitte where SNS Berlin is hosting a local creative market, Stuff, in their basement. It’s safe to say you’ll be able to get a good chunk of your Holiday shopping done here. Plus you can treat yourself on the day with a new tattoo, tooth gem, flowers or manicure. Next, stop by Pop Up Culture for a curated selection of designer and archive fashion. Expect timeless designer pieces, iconic labels, rare archive fashion finds, and selected 90s and 00s collections. Over in Friedrichshain “berlin, textile coop.” is hosting its first edition of its Design Christmas Market. Discover textiles from Panorama Fabrics, Jasmin Viola Sermonet, Jukka Samuli Herttua, and more.
