Christmas market recs

Hi. I love Christmas markets. I wanted some advice for whether I could skip Frankfurt this year.

Last year I visited the following: 1. Warsaw (not Germany I know) 2. 6 in Berlin 3. Dresden 4. Nuremberg 5. Fürth 6. Baden baden

This year I am planning the following 1. Venice 2. Padova 3. Milan 4. Basel 5. Strasbourg 6. Frankfurt**** 7. Dusseldorf*(base) 8. Cologne 9. Aachen 10. Essen*

I will be taking the train. The first five I want to visit because I have never been to northern italy and and basel and strasbourg markets are quite famous. I already pulled out zurich. I am looking at the itinerary and only have about ten days. I'm wondering if I should skip Frankfurt so that I can make sure I'm really appreciating all the markets and would love opinions from other people who have seen them and could give feedback.

I will be in the rhein area for the rest of the holiday season and I had wanted to see more but I don't have enough holidays saved and also need to take some other days off in the new year for family obligations.

Maybe next year I will have my own independent business and can do a 4 week trip without worrying about expense and holidays lol.
