Prague's náměstí Republiky Christmas market: 25 Nov to 24 Dec 2026
Published

A Christmas market opens on náměstí Republiky (Republic Square), next to Prague's Municipal House and the Powder Tower on the edge of the Old Town, on Wednesday 25 November 2026. According to Prague City Tourism's official events listing and the national tourism board Visit Czechia, the market runs until Thursday 24 December 2026. The stalls, next to the Palladium shopping centre, sell Christmas goods such as mistletoe, advent wreaths, candles, ornaments, toys, sweets, nativity sets and advent calendars, together with arts and crafts, Prague City Tourism says.
What it means for your trip
- It closes earlier than the big ones. The markets on Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square run until 6 January 2027, but this one ends on 24 December 2026, so it will not be there if you visit Prague over New Year.
- Easy to combine with sightseeing. Náměstí Republiky sits right next to the Municipal House, on the edge of the Old Town, so the market is an easy stop on a walk through the historic centre.
- A quieter alternative. If Old Town Square feels crowded, this market gives you the same mulled wine and Christmas stalls a short walk away.
