A Texas and Arlington tradition since 2011

The Texas Christkindl Market is a free, family-friendly traditional holiday market in the North Plaza at Globe Life Field.

The almost 70-year relationship between Arlington and its sister city, Bad Konigshofen, inspired the Texas Christkindl Market to commemorate its first magical season in 2011. With several markets all over Europe for the holidays, the Texas Christkindl Market also works with its partner Christmas city, Rothenburg ob der Tauber, to bring the same wonderful magic and feeling to Texas. Visitors will discover handcrafted gifts and collectibles, including exclusive Kathe Wohlfahrt merchandise and designs from the iconic Rothenburg ob der Tauber Christmas Village.
