TL;DR<\/strong>Christmas markets in Moravia begin in Opava on November 20, 2026<\/strong>, followed by Ostrava the next day (November 21), Olomouc on Sunday, November 22, and the largest markets in Brno on Friday, November 27, while the longest-running events in Ostrava and Uhersk\u00e9 Hradi\u0161t\u011b continue until January 6, 2027. Brno, Olomouc, and Ostrava are served by direct trains, while Valtice, Mikulov, and Znojmo are connected by railway line 246 from B\u0159eclav. For accommodation, choose the historic center of Olomouc or wine guesthouses in the P\u00e1lava region, where you should book well in advance for the December 12\u201313 weekend.<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n

At Horn\u00ed n\u00e1m\u011bst\u00ed square in Opava, punch and trdeln\u00edk have been on sale since October 23, 2026, and at Valtice Castle, the Christmas Castle Circuit opens on November 11, 2026<\/strong>, featuring thousands of baubles and figurines from Czech and Moravian glassmakers. The Christmas markets themselves then start in Moravia on November 20 in Opava, and in some cities continue until Three Kings’ Day on January 6, 2027. For a nationwide comparison, see our overview of the best Christmas markets in the Czech Republic<\/a>, while here you’ll find Moravian cities and their dates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The individual events in Moravia differ in format. In cities like Brno, Olomouc, Ostrava, Opava, Krom\u011b\u0159\u00ed\u017e, Zl\u00edn, and Uhersk\u00e9 Hradi\u0161t\u011b, you’ll find full Advent markets<\/strong> running in the squares from late November until Christmas or early January, while in T\u0159eb\u00ed\u010d and Jihlava these are Advent markets with their own programs. Elsewhere you’ll find jarmark<\/strong> (traditional folk markets) selling handcrafted and folk products; in Ro\u017enov and Mikulov these last only one weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A third option is the castle interiors at Valtice and Lednice, where instead of standing at market stalls you stroll through princely apartments and state rooms. Below you’ll find an overview of 13 Moravian destinations<\/strong>, a table of dates, accommodation tips, and practical advice on transportation and parking, so you know where to go and which weekend to choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
