About The Event

Fort Wayne Ballet is excited to launch Kris Kringle Village as part of its festivities with The Nutcracker and to center seasonal holiday activity on the Arts Campus. The village takes its cue from traditional German Christmas Markets that fill the holidays with food, entertainment, and seasonal ornaments, gifts, and fare. The market opens with a “Market Preview” during the downtown “Night of Lights” festivities on November 22nd from 5 to 9 PM.

Regular village hours will mirror Fort Wayne Ballet’s weekend performances of The Nutcracker:

10 AM – 7:30 PM / Saturday, 2nd December 2023
12 PM – 5 PM / Sunday, 3rd December 2023

10 AM – 7:30 PM / Saturday, 9th December 2023
12 PM – 5 PM / Sunday, 10th December 2023

Come and Enjoy!
