The 2025 Christmas markets await us in Europe 's most enchanting cities: an experience amidst twinkling lights, the scent of cinnamon and mulled wine, local crafts, soul-warming melodies, and squares transformed into winter fairytales.

By booking by December 15, 2025 , you can travel on flights starting from €19.99 from November 1 to December 18, 2025. But the surprises don't end there, because we've also identified cheaper flights, starting from €15 ! Curious to discover 3 unmissable destinations ?

In the heart of western Poland , Poznań is a city that never fails to enchant, but during the Christmas season it transforms into an open-air spectacle. Between the charming Old Market Square and the lively Liberty Square, one of the most beautiful Christmas markets comes to life: a riot of lights, aromas, and traditions that envelops every corner of the city.

Leaving from Milan Malpensa on November 27th with flights starting at 17 euros and returning on December 1st for just 15 euros ( please note that prices may change over time ), you can experience the Poznań Christmas markets, among characteristic wooden stalls with local delicacies, spicy sweets, unique handicrafts and the famous Ice Sculpture Festival that transforms the city centre into a crystal kingdom.

The true magic, however, is experienced from above, aboard the giant Ferris wheel that towers over Liberty Square: a single ride is enough to be enchanted by the view of Poznań illuminated by thousands of golden lights. Advent experiences begin on November 15, 2025, and end on January 6, 2026.

Albert Square , in the heart of Manchester , also transforms into a true Christmas wonderland every winter. In front of the imposing neo-Gothic Town Hall, the square lights up with lights and scents, welcoming hundreds of wooden stalls offering delicious street food, hot drinks, and local crafts.

But the magic doesn't end there: over 350 stalls line the city center streets, spreading the Advent atmosphere and transforming Manchester into a fairytale city. Lesser-known than other markets in the United Kingdom and Europe, Manchester's allow you to experience the authentic spirit of Christmas with music, traditions, and smiles that warm even the coldest days.

Ryanair's offer is the perfect opportunity to book a flight to Manchester this time of year: departing from Bologna on December 8th for just €15 and returning on December 11th for €41.99, you can immerse yourself in the magic of the Christmas markets that transform the heart of the city from November 7th to December 22nd.
