Ballyvaughan Christmas Market in County Clare was the first Christmas market in Ireland’s country’s history. Mixing the German origins of Christmas markets with historically rich Irish culture has produced a unique holiday experience that is growing in size and popularity. Every weekend in December, the 40 stalls in the market provide German and Irish food, arts, and crafts. There are a variety of Christmas workshops available to children and adults, mostly involving the cooking of Christmas treats. County Clare makes its celebrations even more distinctive by incorporating the striking coastal landscape into its traditions. Ballyvaughan is particularly famous for Aillwee Cave, millions of years old and full of geological wonders. This natural landmark has been included into Irish holiday tradition by making the cave the designated spot for children to visit Santa Claus every year.
