Brașov's Christmas Market is expected to run from November 28 to December 27, 2026, spreading across central Brașov — historically Piața Sfatului (the main square), Piața Sfântul Ioan, and the Rectorat area. Note: the city hadn't published official 2026 dates at the time of writing, and in recent years the market has stretched into early-to-mid January (the 2025 edition ran November 28, 2025 to January 11, 2026), so confirm exact dates on brasovcity.ro before booking travel around the edges of this window.
Wooden stalls sell handcrafts, sausages, mulled wine, roasted chestnuts, and seasonal decorations, plus rides for kids — entry is free, you pay per item. In recent years, hours ran roughly 14:00-22:00 on weekdays and 10:00-22:00 on weekends and holidays. Brașov sits in the Carpathian foothills; nights are commonly below freezing from late November through December, so pack warm clothing and comfortable shoes for standing and walking on cobblestones.
