A New Christmas Market Is Coming to Lisbon

Written By Becky Gillespie

It’s official! A new Christmas Market is coming to Lisbon in Lumiar, a traditional area in northern Lisbon, east of Carnide and north of Alvalade.  

The new Christmas celebration is called the Great Arraial of Lumiar: Christmas Edition and will be organized by TONIC Events with the support and in partnership with the Lumiar Parish Council. The new Christmas market will be set up in the Jardim Professor Francisco Caldeira Cabral, in Telheiras, right next to the metro exit on the Green Line.

A magical journey awaits you as you stroll through various themed zones. Several stalls selling handcrafted products and many more will be set up in addition to a vast and diverse range of gastronomy. A special highlight of the event will surely be the Enchanted Forest complete with tree climbing trail. Children can also enjoy a 100 square meter playground full of balls!

This brand-new Christmas edition of the Great Arraial of Lumiar promises many surprises and good Christmas cheer over 24 days in December, with opening hours that will allow everyone to attend, and extended hours from 18 December due to the school holidays.

Experience a first-time celebration of Christmas in a charming part of Lisbon with the Great Arraial of Lumiar.
