Clear comparison

Brussels

Brussels-Capital · Belgium

Admission and costs
The squares and market are free to enter. Attractions, rides, food and purchases cost extra. Closing is at 6 pm on 24 and 31 December and 3 January; Grand-Place has no sound-and-light show on these three dates.
Getting there
From Bruxelles-Central station, walk to Grand-Place. Continue towards the Bourse and Place Sainte-Catherine: this linear route links the main Winter Wonders areas and helps avoid repeatedly retracing the same stalls.
Time to allow
Allow around 4 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
The Royal Galleries of Saint-Hubert provide a covered passage near the historic centre, with shop windows and architecture. Walking through does not require a museum ticket; shops, cafés and performances are paid separately.

Pesaro

Province of Pesaro e Urbino · Marche · Italy

Admission and costs
The square and stalls can be explored freely; purchases and refreshments cost extra. Casa Rossini costs €7 full price and Palazzo Mosca €10; the €14 combined ticket includes both and other venues in the museum circuit.
Getting there
For arrival by car, use Il Curvone car park on Viale dei Partigiani, identified by the municipality for access to the centre. Continue towards Piazza del Popolo, keeping the market, Via Rossini and Piazza Mosca in one urban itinerary.
Time to allow
Allow around 4 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
Move your market time indoors to Palazzo Mosca at Piazza Mosca 29. The Civic Museums require their own ticket and close on 25 December and 1 January, so they are not a backup on those dates.
Where to park
Il Curvone car park is on Viale dei Partigiani. Continue towards Piazza del Popolo.
