Vegan Xmas Aschaffenburg

Vegan Xmas Aschaffenburg is a one-day vegan Christmas market on Sunday 6 December 2026, the second Advent weekend, at the JUKUZ (the youth and cultural centre of the city, Kirchhofweg 2) in Aschaffenburg, Lower Franconia. The organisers' Instagram says "Wir feiern 10 Jahre", so 2026 is the 10th anniversary edition. It is organised by Veganer Brunch Miltenberg, together with JUKUZ Aschaffenburg and foodsharing Aschaffenburg.

This is not a standard market with a single row of huts, because it is combined with the JUKUZ DIY day. That means workshops, handmade stalls in the hall and a Christmas decoration swap shelf, where you can leave old ornaments and take something new. The foodsharing group serves dishes made from rescued food, which suits the sustainability angle of the day. The vegan food stalls are in the courtyard, and the market has a reputation for vegan bratwurst and vegan steak rolls, which is a rare treat in a Bavarian town. Live acoustic music adds to the atmosphere.

Opening hours are 12:00–18:00, so plan to arrive around lunch. The mix of courtyard and hall means you have both open-air and indoor space, but the courtyard is where the food is, so bring a warm layer. The organisers do not publish an admission price on the page we checked, so look at the JUKUZ event page or @veganxmas.aschaffenburg on Instagram if that matters to you. The format is relaxed and family-friendly, with a community feel more than a commercial one.

Aschaffenburg is a short regional train ride from Frankfurt am Main, which makes this an easy day trip if you are spending Advent in the Rhine-Main area.
