December is three trade Sundays in a row – this makes Christmas shopping more comfortable for everyone. For example: who likes to leave presents at the last minute, can visit the gallery even a week before Christmas.

New rules and their importance

From 2025, Christmas Eve (24 December) was officially a day off from work. This is the first such change in Poland, which significantly affects the trade calendar in December. Three more trade Sundays are intended to facilitate the preparation for Christmas for thousands of consumers.
