Celebratory Christmas market in Bethany during the second weekend of the Advent season, situated in Solingen.
The Aufderhöhe Christmas market, nestled in the heart of Bethanien Park, is set to return on December 7th and 8th, 2024. This year, the market will support two worthy causes: Mission Aviation Fellowship and Business for Transformation.
The market, open from 11 am to 8 pm on Saturday and from 11 am to 7 pm on Sunday, offers a delightful mix of festive activities, including over 50 stalls selling unique gifts, delicious food options such as Swiss raclette, fresh fish, fries, and sausages, and a cafeteria in the community house of the Free Evangelical Church Solingen-Aufderhöhe for hot drinks and homemade cake.
The stage program, starting at 3 pm on Saturday and at various times on Sunday, includes a diverse lineup of performances. Visitors can enjoy acts such as the children's choir "Die kleinen Baumhirten", guitarist Bernd Gast, singer-songwriter Robert Schreiber, Solingen band "The Streetlights", a service by the Free Evangelical Church Solingen-Aufderhöhe, the brass band of the Salvation Army, and the singing duo "Pure Vocals". The highlight of Sunday evening will be the performance by the jazz band "j@zz-online".
Business for Transformation, a organisation that supports women in difficult life situations by creating fair jobs, including single mothers and former prisoners, will be one of the beneficiaries of the market's proceeds. Mission Aviation Fellowship, a Christian flight service that provides aid and medical help to people in remote regions worldwide, is the other.
The market takes place at Bethanien Park, Aufderhöher Straße 169, [city name]. For more detailed information about the event, such as the specific contributions made by the market to these charities, we recommend visiting the official event website, tuning in to local news closer to the event date, or contacting the market's organisers directly.
In addition to the Christmas market, the Free Evangelical Church Solingen-Aufderhöhe will hold a service at 11 am on Sunday. We hope to see you there, as we come together to support these remarkable causes and celebrate the festive season.
