Good to know
What is on in Munich this weekend, 13 to 15 November?
166 dated events fall across Friday to Sunday (56 exhibitions, 34 performances, 17 activities and classes, 13 markets, 12 film screenings, 9 talks, 6 comedy shows, 4 sports events, 4 nightlife events, 3 festivals, 3 classical and opera events, 2 concerts, 2 tours and 1 food event). Each listing opens on the interactive map.
What can you do in Munich on a weekend with no plans?
Pick one area per day rather than crossing the city. November 2026 is the start of the Christmas markets. The Münchner Christkindlmarkt on the Marienplatz opens on 20 November with the tree lighting and runs to 24 December, and Pink Christmas, the Mittelaltermarkt and the Winterzauber on the Viktualienmarkt open the same day.
How often is this page updated?
The weekend moves forward each time the site is rebuilt, and an event drops off the page the day after it ends.
