The Grand Christmas Market

With over 200 market stalls, Rapperswil’s Old Town will be transformed into an enchanting Christmas wonderland from Wednesday, December 9, through Sunday, December 13, 2026. Now spanning five days instead of the previous four, one of Switzerland’s largest Christmas markets stretches from the lakeshore along Marktgasse to the main square.

The Advent Village

On the weekends before and after the grand Christmas market (Thursday – Sunday), the "Christkindlimärt" makes a guest appearance in a somewhat smaller but no less festive framework in the area around the harbor and on Fischmarktplatz.
