Update from November 16, 1:01 p.m.:

There was already speculation, now it has been officially announced by Munich's Lord Mayor Dieter Reiter: The Christmas market in Munich in 2021 has been canceled.

Further information on the cancellation can be found here.

First message:

Munich - the smell of mulled wine and Christmas

shine: the

longing for it is great.

But can the Christmas markets take place this year?

Many cities in Upper Bavaria canceled, Munich not.

The topic of Christmas markets should not only be discussed in the Prime Minister's Conference on Thursday.

According to OB Dieter Reiter (SPD), the city will decide on Tuesday whether this will take place.

Reiter explained: “There are two hearts beating in my chest.” On the one hand, he wanted to treat the people of Munich, on the other hand, one had to exercise caution in view of the infection.

Corona in Munich: Stand operators tremble before making a decision

According to Reiter, Munich wants to coordinate with the major cities of Nuremberg and Augsburg before making a decision.

The latter announced yesterday that the markets would take place.

If this is also decided for Munich, a 2G rule and mask requirement would apply there, according to the OB on separate gastro islands.

Until the decision is made, the stand operators say: tremble!

Maik Landwermann (45) from the Christmas village in the residence: “We are in the middle of the preparations for the unknown.” Patrick Janovsky (51) and Alexis Schvartzman (43), who set up their stands at Münchner Freiheit, also hope that their work will not in vain is: "Nobody else pays us for that."
