Join me for a live virtual walk through Tbilisi’s Christmas and New Year market, with its sparkling lights, colourful stalls and seasonal treats. As we explore, we’ll talk about the traditions that make this time of year so special in Georgia, from welcoming the New Year to celebrating Christmas. Georgia is a predominantly Orthodox Christian country, where Christmas is celebrated on 7 January. Here, New Year comes first, and the celebrations carry on well into January. Come along to enjoy the festive atmosphere and discover how Georgians celebrate, what they put on the holiday table, and which customs are believed to bring happiness and good fortune.
