48th Radolfzell Christmas Market
The Christkindlemarkt is a real institution in Radolfzell. In 2025, it will take place for the 48th time on and around the market square in front of the cathedral. Far from commercialism, authentic and regional, the four-day market offers an atmospheric ambience and a diverse, high-quality range of products.
Younger guests particularly enjoy taking a spin on the nostalgic children’s carousel.
The food on offer from the catering associations and restaurateurs will have something for
every taste: whether it’s dinnele, fried fish, various soups, Schupfnudeln, grilled sausage in a sausage roll, chestnuts, waffles or crêpes.
And of course, mulled wine, punch and other wintry
drink specialties are not to be missed.

Marketplace concert
Under the direction of its conductor Kuno Rauch, the Stadtkapelle Radolfzell provides a real open-air experience in the heart of the old town. The symphonic concert on the market square, which takes place every two years, is a cooperation between the orchestra and the town’s cultural office and is a highlight in Radolfzell’s music calendar. The Stadtkapelle Radolfzell 1772 e. V. is a symphonic wind orchestra with around 70 members, which has accompanied and enriched the cultural life of Radolfzell for over 250 years. For example, the band plays a major role in the Hausherrenfest and accompanies many other municipal events and celebrations. It is also dedicated to concertante symphonic brass music at competitions and on concert tours. As a prelude to the Market Square Summer 2026, the Stadtkapelle will offer its audience rousing concert brass music and more against the magnificent backdrop of the cathedral. A special concept will be developed for this, which will appeal to the audience as a whole. The program, interior design, stage set-up and lighting concept are all intertwined in keeping with the motto of the city’s anniversary. This transforms the market square into a place of captivating acoustic and visual impressions for visitors. Summer night feelings and all-round enjoyment are guaranteed!
