Christkindlmarket Chicago & Naperville: The Christkindlmarket is a longstanding tradition in Chicago that brings international flair and local charm to the city. The market is known for its high quality gifts and food, holiday cheer and an ideal place for families to create their own holiday traditions.

Christkindlmarket opened its location at Naper Settlement in Naperville for the very first time this year and it’s worth the visit!
