Where to go for the third Advent weekend? We will tell you this in the following lines. We have all noticed that Christmas is approaching unstoppably. Christmas party time, meeting friends at Christmas markets, rushing on the road and in shops. Do you make a list of what to buy? And what about such a clear list of events throughout Slovakia? We do it for you at GoSlovakia. We also made the New Year's Eve, there is a nice pile of ideas on how to spend a really great New Year's Eve.

Click on this link and find the right New Year's Eve event. Now back to the events for the weekend.

In Trnava, in addition to the traditional Christmas markets, you can also visit the Medieval Markets . Want to know what was sold in the markets during the Middle Ages? At the oldest market in Trnava, on the Square of St. Mikuláša from Friday 13.12. until Sunday 15.12. you will experience the scent of melting beeswax for the production of candles, chicory, honey and much more.

A big novelty is a hand-made live Advent calendar , in which several theatrical performances take place every day instead of sweets . There will also be live animals . A medieval carousel powered only by human power awaits the youngest. And if you are patient and wait for the day to turn into night, the unusual, even fairy-tale atmosphere of Christmas, what is called Genius Loci, will emerge before your eyes in the light of the torches.

We will move a few hundred kilometers to the east for our next event. More precisely to the metropolis of the east, Košice . The largest, the 32nd exhibition focused on a healthy lifestyle in Košice. Survive a relaxing pre-Christmas day, during which you can buy gifts for family, friends or friends. And all under one roof, in the heat, of course also with the atmosphere of Christmas - Christmas customs, the smell of mulled wine and punch, the taste of sweet treats, but also with the tasting of various teas and coffees. The markets take place on Friday and Saturday at Jedlíková 7 in Košice.
