Avenue in Advent

Around 80 exhibitors of art, crafts and design will be presenting their wares here. The organising team, consisting of the interest group of Leonhardtstraße entrepreneurs and Family & Friends e. V., wanted a new location for Advent.

It's the perfect place to stroll, eat something tasty and be inspired by the festively decorated stalls. It's the perfect place for many long-standing exhibitors to showcase their small and large handcrafted works of art, enjoy the direct contact and dialogue with their customers and tell them about their techniques, choice of materials or production methods at the stand if they wish.

The range on offer is colourful and varied, as wonderful works are created in studios and workshops from a wide variety of materials such as wood, paper, fabric, silk, wool, precious metals, leather, paint, stones or clay, making them perfect gifts for Advent or Christmas.

From small, handmade hair ornaments to postcards, pictures or wreaths to utility or large-format art, there is something to suit every taste and budget, for example: knitted scarves and shawls made from merino and silk marl, among other things. from merino and silk morino, sewn bags and muffs, Christmas decorations and gifts made from beads, watercolour prints or originals with nature and fantasy motifs, hand-painted wooden pendants, postcards, Christmas cards, unique items turned from wood such as vases, bowls, jewellery, writing utensils or mugs, felt bags, unique upcycled picture frames made from leftover fruit crates or New Year's Eve rocket wood, a wide range of photo products from calendars to mugs, Advent arrangements and wreaths, wallets and small leather goods, utility and art objects made from ceramics, watercolour paintings with motifs from Lake Lietzensee or fairytale books for children written and printed in Berlin.

The gastronomic offer also matches the Advent ambience - hunger or thirst can be quenched with regional, fair and very special food and drinks. The restaurants and cafés located in Leonhardtstraße also offer a varied and high-quality range of food and drink. That's why there will also be freshly roasted chestnuts by the bag and the usual wine bar will mutate into a delicious mulled wine.

Leonhardtstraße in Berlin-Charlottenburg is centrally located between Amzgericht and Stuttgarter Platz. At the end of the summer season, the big summer festival traditionally takes place here, organised by Family and Friends e.V. together with the tradespeople of IG UdL e. V. and exhibitors from the arts, crafts and design sectors, who will be guests and spread out their offerings in front of the shops on Leonhardtstraße.
