With just one month to go until Christmas, preparations are in full swing. Putting together festive menus, planning outfits, and buying presents are best not put off until the last moment. For those still in need of inspiration, we’ve put together a list of five Christmas pop-ups throughout Belgium that are worth a visit and will make the planning process a little easier.
Le Popup de Noël, Brussels
(4 December – 21 December 2025)
Organised by Chloé Roose, aka the woman behind Brussels Kitchen, Le Popup de Noël will be coming back for yet another unforgettable edition. As usual, the store will contain a selection of Belgian artisanship, delicious culinary delicacies, and design-worthy pieces. Some of our favourites include the embroidered napkins by Amuse La Bouche and, of course, the classic brews by Belga Coffee. An address to remember if you are (buying for) an aesthetically-minded kitchen lover.
Address: 2 rue du Prévôt, 1050 Ixelles
Opening times: from Tuesday to Sunday between 11:00 am and 6:00 pm
A Better Blend, Antwerp
(15 November 2025 – 11 January 2026)
A Better Blend has been a fixed value around Christmas for years now. 2025’s edition will be smaller than usual, however, and will focus on home accessories, working closely with Antwerp-based artisanal carpet label grond-stof. Knowing the pop-up, the selection will be architectural in spirit, aesthetically pleasing, and of Belgian make. A must-see when buying for difficult-to-please individuals.
Address: Driekoningenstraat 43, 2600 Antwerpen-Berchem
Opening times: Wednesdays and Saturdays, from 10:00 am until 3:00 pm
Wondr
(8 November 2025 – 4 January 2026 or longer, depending on the location)
Not one but ten Wondr pop-ups will be open this end-of-year throughout Belgium. From the coast over Brussels to Charleroi, the self-care brand will be everywhere. With their body bars, refillable candles, and other zero or low waste products, the shops are the perfect place to shop gifts for sustainable-minded loved ones or for a little present from-you-to-you. Moreover, until 1 December, a 20% discount applies on all their products as a Green Friday deal.
@wondr.care WHAT A DAY 🩷 The first WONDR pop-ups of the year are officially open in Oostende & Utrecht! Seeing so many of you show up, line up and share the love means the world to us. 🫶🏼 The journey has just begun… 9 more cities to go 👀 See you there?
♬ původní zvuk – it goes if you let it
Address: Ostend, Sint-Niklaas, Aalst, Leuven, Kortrijk, Wijnegem, Charleroi, Mechelen, Roeselare, Anderlecht
Opening times: from Monday til Saturday between 10:00 am and 6:00 pm (opening times can differ per location)
Quintessence, Givry
(1 November – 24 December 2025)
Contrary to many others, Quintessence’s pop-up in Givry (some 15 kilometres from Mons) fully focuses on Christmas decorations. While it might be a good place to shop for presents when buying for someone who’s obsessed with Christmas, it is mainly aimed at those who would like to give their own decor an upgrade this year. For the nineteenth time in a row, an old barn is transformed into a Winter Wonderland with an endless offer of baubles, mugs, trees, and much more. A great deal of what’s available has been made in Europe, thus supporting local businesses.
Address: Chaussée de Beaumont 56, 7041 Givry
Opening times: on Wednesdays and Thursday from 1:00 pm until 6:00 pm, on Fridays and Saturdays from 10:00 am until 6:00 pm, and on Sundays from 10:00 am until 1:00 pm
Slow Ho Ho, Brussels
(11 – 14 December 2025)
For the past seven years, jewellery designer Tiroir De Lou has been organising a special creators Christmas market in Brussels and that tradition will be continued in 2025. Cosmetics by Siprès, pottery by Kim Verbeke, children’s books from Editions Marmottons, jewellery by Tiroir de Lou, and much more can be expected during the four-day event. A dedicated culinary offer will also be available on-site, making a visit the perfect weekend activity with friends or family.
Address: Rue Joseph Wauters 19, 1030 Schaerbeek
Opening times: on Thursday from 5:00 pm until 9:00 pm, on Friday and Saturday from 11:00 am until 6:00 pm, and on Sunday from 11:00 am until 5:00 pm
