What's happening in December 2024? Events in Bremen
📕🎅The last chapter of the year is being heralded, December is knocking on the doors of Bremen, soaking wet and half frozen. We at Rausgegangen have put on our thick boots, donned our Christmas hats and set out to find the best events in Bremen for you.
Maybe you're in the mood for rocking concerts, heart-warming Christmas sounds or cozy stage entertainment - we have something for everyone.
And don't worry, we've also thought of those who get a rash at "Last Christmas"! 🤮
But don't let the "a city like in a fairy tale" slogan put you off. Even in December, Bremen is anything but a sleepy fairytale town. While the Christmas markets beckon with the scent of mulled wine and the play of lights, the Hanseatic city's clubs, theaters and art venues are buzzing. From the Fantastic Four to intimate jazz sounds, from mesmerizing shows to improvised Christmas madness - this December has it thick as a fist behind the reindeer ears! 🦌
But wait, before you start to panic and think "Oh dear, so many events, how am I supposed to keep track of everything?" - Don't worry! We've sorted all the categories for you: Lotteries, Spoken Word, Markets, and yes, even a Clothes Swap for those in desperate need of new pants after Christmas cookies. 👖
So, grab your advent calendar (or our app, which is much cooler) and plan your December adventures. And who knows, maybe you'll discover your new favorite event among the gingerbread and tinsel. So, put down the mulled wine, put away your wish list and off you go to the best events in December!

Scrooge - Die Weihnachtsgeschichte von Charles Dickens
No Christmas season is complete without the Christmas story by Charles Dickens. Gladly also in multiple versions. Anyone who has already read it should also have seen it as a movie. And anyone who has seen it should experience it. Preferably in Bremen's smallest theater. A true classic of the art of acting. 🧓
Das Wintermärchen
A somewhat lesser-known play by William Shakespeare is the romance "The Winter's Tale". In addition to a complex and captivating story, Theater Bremen also offers a first-class production and masterful acting. An absolute no-brainer to round off the turbulent festive season. 🎭
Silvesterkonzert
The crowning finale of the year! Say goodbye to the year with a concert in a class of its own. The Lviv State Philharmonic Orchestra will be performing at the Glocke in Bremen and will enchant you with its musical excellence. An absolute must for fans of classical music. Sounds better than fireworks, is more beautiful and doesn't stink. 🎆
