easyJet holidays has added Nuremberg to its festive city-break programme, pairing new winter air links with three-night hotel packages in the German city. The launch is aimed at people planning Christmas market trips without building a separate flight-and-hotel booking, rather than a full winter break. Nuremberg’s Christkindlesmarkt is the main pull, with the market returning to the Hauptmarkt for the 2026 season.

Key Details for Nuremberg Christmas Trips

  • Route: UK departures to Nuremberg through London Gatwick, London Luton and Manchester.
  • Operator: easyJet holidays packages, using easyJet winter flights.
  • Package launch: 26 June 2026.
  • Season: Christmas market trips in winter 2026.
  • Price: sample three-night package from £243pp, including flights and room-only hotel.
  • Frequency: not stated in the release; check the booking calendar before choosing dates.

Nuremberg’s Christkindlesmarkt runs from 27 November to 24 December 2026, putting the new packages in the main pre-Christmas travel window. The hotel options include central and well-connected stays such as Leonardo City Centre, Adina Aparthotel and Leonardo Royal Nuremberg, while easyJet holidays packages include flights, accommodation and flexible booking cover for changes, refunds and price protection.

The new winter flights make Nuremberg a more straightforward short-break option for people flying from the UK. Once in the city, visitors can pair the Christkindlesmarkt with the old town, Imperial Castle, Albrecht Dürer House, the Germanisches Nationalmuseum and Courtroom 600, without needing a long onward journey.

This is a useful option for people who want the Christmas market atmosphere but do not want a long itinerary. The safer booking move is to match flights with the market’s open dates, compare hotel location against Hauptmarkt, and check what luggage is included. Nuremberg is small enough for three nights, but December weekends may sell fast because peak market nights are limited.
