## About

The Christkindlmarkt's German holiday sing-along invites families to sing traditional carols together, and the market notes that no German-language experience is needed. After the singing, participants join an ornament exchange by bringing a wrapped ornament valued between $5 and $10 and choosing a different one to take home. The 2026 event runs 7:30 to 9 p.m. on Wednesday, December 9, in the market on Carter Green.
