Lotte Department Store Christmas Market

Lotte Department Store's ‘Christmas Market’ will return to Jamsil this winter on an all-time scale. Lotte Department Store announced on the 3rd that it will introduce the ‘Lotte Town Christmas Market,’ which emphasizes immersive experiences, at the grass square of Lotte World Tower World Park in Jamsil for 46 days from the 20th to 4th January next year. Lotte Christmas Market, which began in 2023 with the motif of ‘Reproduction of the European Traditional Christmas Market,’ has established itself as the largest Christmas market in the metropolitan area, mobilizing 240,000 people in its first year and 400,000 people last year. The first sale of the Christmas market 'Pre-entry Ticket' will begin at 2pm on the 10th of this month through the Naver reservation system. In reflection of the high demand from customers waiting for the Christmas market, Lotte Department Store will put in about 30,000 advance reservations this year, an increase of 20% from last year over a total of three fast-pass tickets.
