Our Mission
The OCC Christkindlmarket is a new, authentic German holiday market, which launched in December 2025. Building on 25 years of success with Denver’s Christkindlmarket, the German American Chamber of Commerce - Colorado Chapter is bringing this festive tradition to life on a cozy, smaller scale with 10 handcrafted wooden huts, authentic German food, drinks, and cultural entertainment. The event aims to create lasting economic impact and community value. Free and open to all, the market prioritizes local partnerships, including local vendors, artists, and performers. With strong community support, the Christkindlmarket is set to become a cherished holiday tradition in Old Colorado City.
