Weihnachten mit Augenzwinkern

Christmas with a Wink brings a playful twist to the festive season in Osnabrück. Instead of quiet contemplation alone, this reading places humour, wit and gently ironic observations at the heart of Advent. Helmut Thiele presents Christmas stories of a different kind, with texts by authors including Jan Weiler, Axel Hacke, Christine Nöstlinger and Erich Kästner offering a refreshing change from familiar seasonal sentiment [1]. Set in the atmospheric surroundings of a historic hall, the event is well suited to anyone who enjoys literature with character, sharp timing and a warm sense of mischief. The reading takes place on 15 December 2026 from 7.00 to 8.30 pm, making it an inviting evening programme during the run-up to Christmas [1]. With refreshments also provided, the event combines cultural enjoyment with a relaxed, convivial mood [1]. For visitors seeking an indoor cultural experience in the festive season, this literary evening offers charm, laughter and a welcome pause from the usual Christmas routine.
