This year, for the first time, we are introducing tickets to ensure a great experience for all. Adult tickets are $2 (via Eventbrite), while children under 16 are free. By managing numbers, we’re aiming to allow everyone to comfortably browse stalls, enjoy the entertainment, and savour the food, plus get a better understanding of numbers and attendees ourselves. Ticket sales are going live on Monday, 21 October.

The DSM German Christmas Market is a showcase of traditional German culture and festive fun in the Melbourne Spring! Expect delicious food such as sausages, pretzels, cakes, and Berliner (jam donuts), alongside an array of hand-made Christmas gifts, glass ornaments, local jewellery, and more.
But wait, there's more! Live music and activities like craft tables, jumping castles and treasure hunts make for a great and relaxed time for the entire family.
Our Christmas Market is not only about festive fun; it’s also the main fundraiser of the year, helping to support the Deutsche Schule Melbourne and enhance our students’ learning experience. In past years, funds raised have helped build a fantastic playground, purchase a wealth of books for our library, and fund other important school projects.
The market is almost entirely run by the engaged parent community of the school, a massive and exciting labour of love ❤️
Tickets will go on sale via Eventbrite starting October 21, 2024. Be sure to get yours early!
