OKM Music’s Christkindl Market

OKM Music’s Christkindl Market, hosted in Bartlesville, brings a beloved German and European tradition to our community. This enchanting Christmas market was designed to evoke the charm of a festive holiday village straight from a German storybook. Inspired by the historic Christkindlesmarkt in Nuremberg, Germany, dating back to the 16th century, our market showcases vendors offering high-quality gifts and foods such as bratwurst, pretzels, and mulled wine. The market stalls are adorned with handcrafted ornaments, seasonal decorations, artisanal goods, and more, creating a warm holiday atmosphere that resonates throughout Bartlesville, inviting families to partake in festive activities and embrace the spirit of the season. Each year, the event features performances by Mr. and Mrs. Claus, the Bartlesville High School Orchestra, the Bartlesville High School Jazz Choir, and more talented performers, bringing the joy of music to attendees. Kids are also able to enjoy two days filled with engaging activities! Kids always love the bounce house, but with more activities, such as painting wooden snowmen and trees, Christmas tree bowling, decorating wooden ornaments, icing Lebkuchen cookies, and singing with Mr. and Mrs. Claus, this event is a wonderful activity for children and families!
