Christmas is the perfect time to enjoy Madrid. Unlike other European cities, Madrid has a mild winter with temperature rarely reach zero degrees, clear skies and little rain. Temperatures in Madrid in December are between 35°F and 51°F, with an average of 44°F. Good weather favors the activity on the streets, including concerts, markets and food stalls.

Madrid authorities organize an annual display of lights and decorations that turn the city into a feast for the senses. Recession has forced the city to cut down the hours of the light show from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. only Sundays to Wednesdays, and from 6:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Of course! On Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve the lights remain on until 3:00 a.m.

There are several Christmas markets (mercados de navidad, mercadillos de navidad ormercado navideño in Spanish) in Madrid, running for various durations over the Christmas period. The authorities are slow in releasing information about when these will open, so all days below are unofficial and are based on previous years’ events.

Christmas markets tend to open at around midday and close around 9pm or 10pm.
