If your holiday spirit is already crying out for festive plans, mark your calendars because the 2026 Christmas market at El Palacio de Hierro in Perisur has been confirmed. The holiday season is taking shape in the southern part of the capital with an event designed to be enjoyed with family, as a couple, or with friends, all surrounded by a truly festive atmosphere.
This classic end-of-year event is part of a wide-ranging program that brings together music, family-friendly activities, and themed areas. The venue chosen in this part of the city is El Palacio de Hierro Perisur, where the public can visit from November 12 through December 24.
Although the brands participating in this year’s event have not yet been revealed, in previous years we’ve enjoyed Christmas decorations, gifts, and culinary delights in a nostalgic, brightly lit atmosphere.
