when do european christmas markets start

In many parts of Europe, Christmas markets typically start in late November or early December and run through the holiday season, often ending on December 24th, Christmas Eve. These markets typically feature a wide variety of seasonal goods and activities, such as handmade crafts, seasonal foods and drinks, and traditional performances. In some cities, such as Vienna and Prague, the markets are a major tourist attraction and can last for several weeks. The most famous markets in Europe are typically held in Germany, with some of the oldest markets dating back to the Middle Ages.
