Christmas market in Leipzig conducts initial inventory
Getting into the Festive Spirit at Leipzig's Christmas Market
Winding down towards the end of December, Leipzig's magical Christmas market is nearing its final stretch. Kicking off the festivities, an initial 6,000 visitors flocked to the market opening. The grand total of visitors expected by the closure on the 23rd of December is an impressive two million - a daily boost compared to last year, according to market officials.
Much to the delight of traders, the majority of them expressed their satisfaction with the Christmas spirit running high in the city. More often than not, the daily revenue at most stalls surpassed last year's figures.
As the main event winds down, locals and visitors will be able to bring home all the decorative trees legally on the 22nd of December. Central collection points will be set up at Nikolaikirchhof, Augustusplatz, along Peters- and Reichsstraße, and right beside the Magic Forest.
