Press release -
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, but differently.
Enjoy Potsdam in Advent
Usually Potsdam turns into a magic scenery inviting to stroll over the traditional Christmas markets and to meet friends and family in Advent. This year the historical scenery of Potsdam’s city is festively illuminated again and also the Christmas tree shines in its blue blaze of light at the Brandenburg Gate, but the popular Christmas markets and Advent events stay closed in 2020.
To get into the Christmas mood, Potsdam enthusiasts can take the magic of Advent home! On www.weihnachten-potsdam.de the PMSG Potsdam Marketing und Service GmbH posts all Christmas offers. Listen to Potsdam’s Christmas stories on the podcast, find presents by local manufacturers for your loved ones or order treats from Potsdam’s restaurants. “The Tourist Information centres stay open to the public and offer numerous gifts. Festive baubles, calendars or local sweets – you might find some nice and surprising Christmas presents. Also a decorative Potsdam Advent calendar filled with chocolate is on offer” Janine Loyal, head of the Tourist Information centres, informs.
A wintery and festive atmosphere appears on social media at @deinpotsdam. Each Advent Sunday, a short film takes you to the wintery Potsdam. The images invite visitors on a tour along the alleys of Sanssouci, through the Dutch Quarter or to the banks of the Havel River at Schiffbauergasse. A little Potsdam break - this year mostly digital.
