A Christmas market that opens on a Wednesday is rare. One that has closed again by the first Sunday of Advent is too. Huttwil is both.

✨ Highlights on site
What sets this market apart from every other one is not in its run dates.
The Huttwil market starts on a Wednesday. For three weekdays it only opens at 13:00 but stays open until 22:00; on Saturday from 10:00, also until 22:00. In other words: on four evenings out of five you can still go after work. If you live in the Emmental or Upper Aargau, you don't need a weekend for it.
What we don't have yet, we say: the exhibitor list and site plan for 2026 are 'coming soon', Pro Regio Huttwil writes on 20 October 2026. That is why there is no number of stalls here – the one that circulates on day-trip portals does not come from the organiser.

Plan Huttwil for the last week of November, ideally a weekday evening – by the first Sunday of Advent the market is already over.
