CARMEL,
IN – After
a successful opening day with nearly 10,000 visitors, the Carmel
Christkindlmarkt
and The
Ice at Center Green
will open on Friday at 1 p.m. to kick off the Thanksgiving weekend
with new holiday traditions in Carmel. Here is the weekend schedule:
Thanksgiving
Day – Closed
Friday
– 1-10 p.m.
Saturday
– 1-10 p.m.
Sunday
– 1-9 p.m.
There
is no admission fee to the Christkindlmarkt, but there are fees
associated with ice skating and skate rentals. Go to
TheIceAtCenterGreen.com/rates-fees
for more information.
In
order to improve your experience, the City of Carmel is adding new
street signs to help direct visitors who may not be familiar with the
area. Those signs will direct incoming traffic off Keystone Parkway
or U.S. 31 to Range Line Road and the entrance to the new Veterans
Way Garage, the most convenient place to park for the
Christkindlmarkt and Ice at Center Green.
The
garage is located south of the roundabout at City Center Drive (126th
Street) and Range Line Road behind Graeter’s Ice Cream shop, 864 S.
Range Line Road. Veterans Way Garage is a short walk through Carmel
City Center to Center Green.
All
market huts are equipped to handle cash and credit card transactions.
There is also an ATM on site. If you plan to skate, you may bring
your own skates and only pay for time on the ice. There is also a
skate rental shop. Restrooms are conveniently located just west of
the Monon Greenway at Center Green. There are fire pits and heaters
on the grounds of the Christkindlmarkt, but please dress
appropriately for cold weather.
