Helsinki Christmas Market (Finnish: Tuomaan Markkinat; Swedish: Tomasmarknaden; lit.'St. Thomas Market') is a Christmas market held every year in Helsinki, Finland. It is visited by more than 300,000 people every year.[1][2][3] The event has been organized since 1994. Originally it was held in Esplanadi Park for a long time, until they moved to their current venue, the Senate Square.[1]

The opening of the Helsinki Christmas Market is always on 1 December and lasts until 22 December.[2][4][5] The event brings almost 100 artisans and small producers from all over Finland, as well as more than 20 delicacy sellers, and cafe and restaurant operators to the Senate Square.[4][6] There is also a vintage-styled carousel, which is free for market visitors.[4][7]

In November 2023, a multinational news channel CNN listed the Helsinki Christmas Market as one of the best Christmas markets in the world.[5]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
