Christmas Markets: Satisfied Midterm Report Despite Rain - Frankfurt’s New Children’s Christmas Market Wins Over Families Along the Mainkai
Frankfurt am Main has introduced a new children's Christmas market along the Mainkai promenade. The event, named Kinder-Weihnachtsmarkt am Mainkai, is part of the city's festive offerings this year. Early reports indicate it has been enthusiastically received by families and visitors alike.
Across Hesse, Christmas markets have maintained steady visitor numbers and sales, despite unusually mild weather and occasional rain. In Frankfurt, around 1.2 million people attended the markets in the first two weeks, matching last year's figures. Police have reported no major security issues and a slight decrease in crime compared to 2023.
Frankfurt's new children's market and voucher scheme have added fresh appeal to the city's festive lineup. With solid attendance across Hesse and no major disruptions, organisers and vendors are optimistic about the remaining weeks. The combination of family-friendly attractions and stable visitor numbers suggests a successful season so far.
