Christkindlmarkt in the Quad Cities is a big deal. People look forward to this event every year, but usually, you have to wait to get into the market when it opens along with everyone else.

Hold it right there. Do you want to get in early and take a look around before anyone else does? Maybe nosh on dinner and sample the holiday beers like you're a Quad City celebrity?

Here's your chance. The Christkindlmarkt QC St. Nicholas dinner is set for Dec., 3 at the Freight House,421 W. River Dr. Davenport from 5 - 9 p.m.
