KerstKelders Arnhem 2026

A Christmas market underground: Arnhem's medieval cellars fill with festive stalls for one weekend in December.

Not every Christmas market needs to be outside in the drizzle. For one weekend, Arnhem’s historic cellars under the old town become KerstKelders, a candlelit Christmas market in a maze of centuries-old vaults.

Expect stalls with gifts, decorations and treats, and a properly atmospheric setting that feels a world away from the shopping streets above.

  • When: Friday 11 to Sunday 13 December 2026, 10:00 to 19:00
  • Where: Historische Kelders, Oude Oeverstraat 4, Arnhem
  • Tickets: €7.50 for adults
  • Getting there: Direct intercity trains from Amsterdam Centraal take just over an hour; the cellars are about a 15-minute walk from Arnhem Centraal

Good to know: The cellars get busy at weekends, so arrive early, and expect narrow passages if you have a pram.
