Reston’s Annual Christkindlmarket Set for This Thursday

Christkindlmarket/Courtesy German Armed ForcesReston residents can experience Germany without buying a plane ticket during a holiday market later this week.

The German Armed Forces is scheduled to hold its annual Christkindlmarket at its office at 11150 Sunrise Valley Dr. this Thursday, Dec. 8, from 4-9 p.m.

Each year around the holidays, the office transforms its parking lot into a traditional German outdoor Christmas fair.

In previous years, the festival has included games, crafts to purchase, entertainment and traditional German food and beer.

Though the outdoor event is free, some of the food, beer and merchandise costs money.
