EasyCityPass Berlin tips December

The Christmas markets are open, and the smell of freshly roasted almonds is in the air. The colorful lights are twinkling and the Ferris wheels are turning. Can't decide whether to go to the Christmas market or visit an EasyCityPass Berlin partner? Here are three partner suggestions where you can combine the two.

The Panoramapunkt am Potsdamer Platz has the Christmas market and Winterwelt am Potsdamer Platz right on its doorstep. The fastest elevator takes you to the viewing platform on the 24th floor in 20 seconds. The 360-degree view is a dream! There are several Christmas markets around Alexanderplatz. For example, you can warm up in the newly opened IKONO Berlin. An immersive experience for young and old! The Christmas market at the Gedächtniskirche is a good starting point for our partner Witty's Berlin. The Bioland currywurst from Witty's is made from the best parts of the Bioland pig.

You are guaranteed to get into the Christmas spirit at the Christmas Garden Berlin. If you want to test your skating skills, you can find an overview of the best places to skate in Berlin.

We wish you and your families a wonderful Advent season, a Merry Christmas, and a healthy, peaceful year 2025!
