【4K HDR🇯🇵】”Christmas Market in Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse 2023″ on weekend evenings & nights!

Comparison between after 4:00 p.m. and after 5:00 p.m. Only an hour away from the heavy crowds! Friday, December 8, 2023, 3:30 p.m. In front of Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse This time, I would like to show you how the Christmas Market looked like on the weekend

Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse is still bright before the sun sets Not too many people yet The usual admission fee is 500 yen, but until December 8, admission is free for high school students and younger Therefore, it is expected to be crowded with more visitors than usual on this day

So, here is an overview of how crowded the “Christmas Market in Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse” will be during the weekend The number of visitors is expected to increase over the Christmas period, so we hope this article will be helpful for those who are planning to visit the Christmas Market in the future

The gate in front of you is the exit and re-entry gate. The entrance is on the seaside side At 3:30 p.m., there were still plenty of tables available We passed Santa Claus on the way to the ticket office The line in front of the ticket booth

The line is not as long as I had expected Walking up to the sign indicating the end of the line It is now 3:50 p.m., and it took about 10 minutes from the time I started standing in line to the time I purchased my ticket Just around 4:00 p.m., we entered the venue. At this point, the number of visitors in the venue is small The illumination starts at 4:00 p.m., but the sky is still bright, so it’s hard to see if the lights are on or not

But it will get dark soon, so if you enter at this point, you will have enough time to enjoy the illumination afterwards Since you are coming all the way to this Christmas market, you will want to have a good seat and enjoy the food, drink, and illumination at your leisure

For this reason, we think it is important to enter the market at least by 4:00 p.m., when the illuminations are turned on At this time of the day, there will be plenty of seats to sit in and fewer lines to buy food and drink

As mentioned below, the Christmas Market allows re-entry, so it is essential to purchase tickets for the day before the crowds arrive However, on Saturdays and Sundays, even during the daytime, the market gets crowded during lunch time, so be prepared to wait in line even if you arrive early

After 4:00 p.m., when the sun sets over the Red Brick Warehouse The sky is getting darker and darker, and the illuminations are becoming more and more beautiful Right now there are only about 10 people in line at most for each food and beverage booth, but this will increase quickly in another hour!

If it’s an empty time, you can choose any restaurant you like while looking at the map of the venue There are many tables for eating and drinking on the seaside side of the main venue I recommend you to sit on the left side of the wall to avoid the cold sea wind

Even at this time of the day, the tables are quite full, but it is not impossible to sit at all If you can get a seat as close to the stove as possible, you will be able to stay warm and comfortable As the crowds are expected to increase toward Christmas,

Those who really want to spend time in a comfortable space without standing in line can also use this premium lounge! For the first time ever, a limited number of premium lounges will be available for private use The only surprise is the price

Each 90-minute session costs 33,000 yen for two people, depending on the popular time slot! Since there are only 5 premium lounges available, this pricing must be a balance between supply and demand

If you can get to the venue as early as possible, it may be practical to leave all your belongings except your valuables at the table, secure a seat, and go out to buy food The tables near the center of the main venue are almost full after 4:00 p.m.

Food and beverage booths here are also still available Leaving the main venue for the next venue The layout of the venue, where you have to leave the main venue once, was a cause of traffic congestion at night

You can only enter this venue through the re-entry gate, so you need to show your wristband to enter The area was empty compared to the main venue, as there were no Christmas trees, etc.

There are also booths selling German goods as well as food and beverages, so it’s a relatively calm and relaxing place to spend time If you stay in the main hall for a long time, you may be bothered by the ringing of the bells “Eureka” is an annual booth The beef stew was delicious!

It seemed to be popular again this year, and there was a long line of people waiting in line The candle holders directly imported from Germany at this general store are very beautiful and a must-see! It would have been quite possible to enjoy an early dinner and wait for the sun to set,

But this time, since I have already toured the venue, I would like to go out of the venue If you enter the venue early and go out of the venue once, it is a good idea to visit tourist attractions around the venue

The wristband on this day was purple. The color changes every day, so you can’t use the same one every day

When I looked at the end of the line from outside the venue after 4:30 p.m., I saw that the line had grown long and started to line up along the seaside side of the venue MARINE & WALK YOKOHAMA at around 4:40 p.m.

For three days from December 8 (Fri.) to 10 (Sun.), “BAY WALK MARKET 2023” is being held in the waterfront area of the Minatomirai Shinko District In addition to selling a variety of doggie goods, you can also enjoy gourmet food from the kitchen car

This is an event that you can enjoy just by looking around MARINE & WALK YOKOHAMA is a wonderful place to visit this time of year, so be sure to stop by MARINE & WALK YOKOHAMA is an open mall, so anyone can easily stroll in

MARINE & WALK YOKOHAMA is currently holding “Merry Mellow Xmas” until December 25 (Monday) Santa Claus is floating in the sky in a snorkeling outfit with bubbling in the air and wire mesh art It’s like taking a walk under the sea! MARINE & WALK YOKOHAMA has a unique Christmas tree every year

This year, the “Buoy Tree” Christmas tree focuses on marine debris This is a new monument tree that utilizes buoys wrapped in leftover fabric and yarn Buoys” are a problem facing the world’s oceans, and “leftover fabric and yarn” from the apparel and textile industries are said to be the world’s second most polluting industries

The tree is an upcycled tree that overlaps these two elements with the concept of the MARINE & WALK facility The “Buoy Tree” is not only cute, but also a one-of-a-kind creation made of materials that tell a true story Please visit the Buoy Tree during the exhibition period!

Compared to the crowded Christmas market, MARINE & WALK YOKOHAMA feels like heaven It is now 4:50 p.m. and I am about to return to the Red Brick Warehouse through the Shinko Chuo Square The sun is setting and the sky is turning to night

The illumination looks really beautiful at this time of night If you have visited the Christmas Market, but gave up because it was too crowded, I recommend you to stop by MARINE & WALK YOKOHAMA! It takes about 5 minutes on foot from MARINE & WALK YOKOHAMA to Shinko Chuo Square

“YORUNOYO 2023” starts at 5:00 p.m. at Shinko Chuo Square, so I’ll want to arrive before then Take the escalator in front of you to the Circle Walk (pedestrian bridge) The night view of the Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse from the Circle Walk is also quite nice

Going down the escalator while looking at the rows of gingko trees in full bloom 4:59 p.m., I managed to make it just in time before the start of YORUNOYO! The flow of people is heading toward Sakuragi-cho Station to the Shinko Chuo Square

I have a feeling that it’s going to be crowded from now on At 5:00 p.m., the YORUNOYO projection mapping starts! Many people who have seen the Y-CUBE illumination are heading directly to the Christmas Market

If you are going to both, it is better to go to the Christmas Market first and then to YORUNOYO to avoid the crowds! In addition to the projection mapping, there is also a 5-minute spectacle show every 30 minutes starting at 5:30 p.m.

The YORUNOYO projection mapping is shown in a separate video, if you are interested Now, you can see the Red Brick Warehouse through the Shinko Chuo Square The ice skating rink seems to be more popular at night Let’s see how long the line is at the ticket gate

5:10 p.m., and you can’t see any sign of the last row from here This is where we were at the end of the line about 30 minutes ago, after 4:30 p.m. I wonder how long the line has grown in 30 minutes Finally, I could see the sign for the last row

Now they say it’s about an hour wait to buy tickets At 3:50 p.m., the line had grown from a 10 minute wait to about an hour in less than an hour and a half The line is expected to grow even longer after this The popularity of the Christmas Market is amazing…

This is the Premium Lounge from the sea side The only way to avoid the crowds is to use the expensive premium lounge, or get there early and get an admission ticket! Now, let’s enter the venue through the re-entry gate It’s already dark, and the Christmas lights look even more beautiful

Compared to before sunset, the number of visitors inside the main venue has increased considerably It’s already difficult to get a table at the main venue The line for the food and beverage booths is also increasing It’s astonishing to see this many people in just an hour or so

Let’s take a look at the next venue Last Friday, this area was so crowded that it was impossible to come and go smoothly (There was an announcement that there was a 2-3 hour wait to purchase tickets)

Even on the same day of the week and at the same time of the day, the crowds can vary quite a bit, so it’s a good idea to get in early! The atmosphere of the venue changed to a more moody one before sunset! However, the crowds are also increasing

In this article, I would like to introduce the congestion of the “Christmas Market in Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse” on weekends The number of visitors tends to increase after 4:00 p.m., when the venue’s illumination is turned on

It is recommended that you arrive at the venue at 3:00 p.m. at the latest and purchase an admission ticket! Thank you for watching to the end!

This time, I visited the “Christmas Market in Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse” from the evening of December 8 (Fri.) through the night!
Admission is free for high school students and younger until Friday, December 8. Therefore, on this last day, the market was crowded with high school students.
In this issue, we will introduce the congestion of “Christmas Market in Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse,” which is very crowded on weekends, and how to avoid the congestion.
At 3:30 p.m., it was only a 10-minute wait to enter the venue, but by 4:30 p.m., the line was growing longer and longer.
Then, at 5:00 p.m., when the YORNOYO 2023 projection mapping started at the Shinko Chuo Plaza, the flow of people into the Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse increased rapidly, and by 5:00 p.m., there was an hour-long wait to enter…
The best strategy to avoid such crowds is to obtain admission tickets before they become too crowded and re-enter through the re-entry gate!
The wristbands that serve as admission tickets change color daily, and on this particular day they were purple.
Our recommendation is to enter the venue before the Christmas tree is lit up at 4:00 PM. You will be able to enter the venue relatively quickly, the venue will be empty, and you will be able to see the moment the lights come on, even though it is still light out. This year, the lights will change every 30 minutes for 5 minutes, so you can also enjoy the process until it gets dark.
If you enjoy an early meal, it will not be long before it gets dark at 5:00 p.m. You will be able to see the beautiful Christmas lights shining in the night sky!
If you do not want to spend time inside the venue, you can go out and enjoy the surrounding tourist attractions at the adjacent “Bay Walk Market 2023” from December 8 (Fri.) to December 10 (Sun.). Also, if you go a little further to Marine & Walk Yokohama, you can enjoy the beautiful illumination of “MARINE & WALK YOKOHAMA Merry Mellow Xmas” now being held there.
Be smart and arrive early to enjoy the market!
