Winter magic: Christmas market at Munich Airport

The Christmas market and winter market in the Munich Airport Center opens on November 15th and offers a varied experience for all visitors until December 29th. From a special family day to a large ice skating area, guests can expect a festive program with numerous attractions.

Adventure world for young and old

From November 15th, the Munich Airport Center (MAC) will be transformed into a winter adventure world that will be open daily from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., except for Christmas Eve, when the market closes at 4 p.m. The market is placing special emphasis on the youngest visitors this year by offering a family day every Tuesday. On this day, parents and their children can benefit from reduced prices from the exhibitors. Over 40 stalls offer a wide range of gift items and delicious winter delicacies.

Paradise for ice skating enthusiasts: ice skating and curling

The ice skating surface remains a centerpiece of the market, attracting skaters with over 600 square meters of space. Guests can also expect a curling rink that guarantees fun for the whole family. Every Wednesday evening, the ice rink is transformed into an ice disco, where visitors have the opportunity to show off their skating skills to current music from 6 p.m.

• Opening hours: daily from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m
• Use of the ice rink: 5.00 euros per person, unlimited in time (including polish or shoe rental)
• Use of the curling rink: 25.00 euros per hour

Creativity and entertainment

From Thursday to Sunday, visitors have the opportunity for the first time to design ceramics such as cups and plates according to their own ideas in a creative workshop. While the materials must be purchased, participation in the workshops is free. At the same time, live performances of jazz, pop, gospel and hits will take place on the festival stage from Thursday to Sunday from 6 p.m., providing musical entertainment.

The Christmas and winter market at the Munich Airport Center sees itself as a place of encounter and fun that offers everyone, whether visitors or travelers, access to a rich and varied offering. The organization stands out for its efforts to create unforgettable experiences amid a unique ambience that captures and enlivens the spirit of the holidays.

Special highlight: light rides

The popular light rides through the airport are back this year, give participants an impressive look behind the scenes and last around 50 minutes. These guided bus trips can be easily booked online; remaining spaces are available on site at the Lichterfahrten hut in the MAC. In addition, visitors can park for three hours free of charge in the P20 car park using a QR code that can be found on the Christmas market flyer and the airport website.

3 hours free parking

1. Take a parking ticket at the entrance to the P20 car park.
2. When paying at the checkout, insert the parking ticket into the ticket machine, hold the QR code at the parking machine under the scanner and scan it, pay additional parking fees if necessary and remove the parking ticket again.
3. Insert the parking ticket at the exit barrier and exit.

Alternatively, the parking ticket can also be validated at the “Sportalm-Hütte” directly at the Christmas and winter market. This eliminates the need to scan the QR code at the pay station – but not the entire payment process.

If the P20 is completely full, please follow the active diversion, which will lead to the parking garages or underground car parks with available spaces. All priority areas T1, T2 and all special areas (P10, P27) are excluded from this parking regulation.

Please note: The offer is only valid in the regular P20 car park and not in special areas subject to a surcharge such as “XXL parking”, “Valet parking” or “Comfort and safety parking” and also not in the driveways. The offer can only be used with a parking ticket; entry and exit with a credit card is not possible.
