CALENDAR / December TALLINN CHRISTMAS AT TOWN HALL SQUARE Throughout December The fairy-tale atmo- sphere of the Christmas market makes anything possible! Held in the heart of the city, the market offers a wide selection of gifts and festive foods, and, like every year, includes Estonia’s most fa- mous Christmas tree along with Santa and his reindeer. December 6 – January 6 The Design and Architecture Gallery organises an art exhibition with just one rule: everything must be made of gingerbread dough. Local artists, designers, and architects turn 300 kilograms of dough into unique gingerbread characters. You can join this mania by taking part in the beloved gingerbread workshops. Dance and enjoy the gala performances and festive at- mosphere at the New Year’s Eve Ball, brought to you by the Estonian National Opera!
