GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — It’s so close to summer, we can smell the sunscreen as thousands of grills fire up for the season.

If you’re already over the heat and thinking of sleighbells and roasted chestnuts, the Grand Rapids Downtown Market is here to add to your already sugar plumb-laden dreams.

The Christkindl Markt— which debuted last winter— is coming back around!

The meticulously created wonderland runs November 15-December 23 and brings custom-built vendor booths, a German-Style Beverage Hall featuring Gluhwein, hot cocoa, cider, and limited-edition steins of holiday-themed beer, and s’mores roasting—all decked-out for the season.

Make a full day of it by reserving a private chalet and sign you and your friends up for curling!
