Shops open on Sunday: Experience the magic of Advent in Rostock!

There will be a lot of hustle and bustle in Rostock next Sunday, November 30th, 2025, because shopping is coming up on Sunday. The shops in the KTC, in the Ostsee Park and in the city center invite all bargain hunters to indulge in pre-Christmas shopping from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. The restaurants in Ostsee Park open their doors from 11 a.m. and ensure that no one has to stroll through the shops hungry. How Moz.de reports, this shopping Sunday traditionally falls on the first weekend of Advent, which gives it a special festive atmosphere.

What can visitors expect in Ostsee Park? A varied program for young and old! Children can look forward to a Christmas painting and craft street where their creative talents can come to the fore. There is also free face painting and Santa Claus is available until 3 p.m. to receive the wish lists from the little visitors. And if that's not enough, a children's cinema during the run-up to Christmas will show how to spend the holidays with fun and joy. The Werderaner Tannenhof also holds a Christmas tree sale every Sunday in Advent, which creates the right atmosphere.

Program at KTC

The KTC didn't miss a beat either. A great Christmas program awaits guests, which will create a great atmosphere during the pre-Christmas period. In addition, the Magic Mirror photo box will make great souvenir photos possible from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. Santa Claus and his helper Kröpelino will wander through the KTC and make the Advent feeling even more tangible. There's a lot going on in Rostock, which only increases the anticipation for Christmas.

The laws surrounding shopping Sundays

Did you know that the law in Germany allows a maximum of four shopping Sundays per year? If it is a special occasion, such as a street festival or a trade fair, additional Sundays can of course also be approved. These regulations vary from state to state. In Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, as in many other federal states, four shopping Sundays are planned, although tourist areas can even receive additional opportunities for their businesses under certain conditions. Information about upcoming shopping Sundays across Germany is available at verkaufsoffener-sonntag.com to find.

So stay tuned and take the opportunity to do some festive shopping in Rostock on Sunday. Whether in the KTC, Ostsee Park or downtown, the shops are ready to give you a little pre-Christmas sparkle and glitter!
