Which market to pick
Old Town Square has the city's main Christmas tree: this year a 23-metre spruce from the Podještědí region. Wenceslas Square is run by the same organiser on the same dates.
Náměstí Míru in Vinohrady sits in front of the Church of St. Ludmila and opens first of these four, on 20 November. Náměstí Republiky follows on 25 November, on the side of the square towards V Celnici street.
Before you go
When we checked, the organiser of náměstí Míru and náměstí Republiky was still preparing the 2026 markets and had not published daily opening hours. Check its site before a special trip.
Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square stay open after Christmas, until Three Kings on 6 January.
