Concerts and other events guarantee the right Christmas atmosphere. We captured in on the Christmas Markets of Vipiteno, Brunico, Sarentino, San Candido, Bressanone, Merano and Bolzano.
Christmas, being the magical time of the year it is, is the perfect way in which the city of Bolzano can show its best side: Lights, aromas, sounds and colours can be seen, smelt, and heard in every corner of the city, especially in the centre where the Christmas Market can be found. Come with us and and follow us on our search fro traditional and regional delicacies and see the city from a new and magical side. Welcome to the Bolzano Christmas Market!
The Christmas market in Brunico is a real particular one. It manages to be an oasis of quiet in the busy Christmas period. Probably the motto of the Christmas market is the reason therefore: tradition and modernity. Come with us and immerse into homely Christmas ambiance.
Once a year Vipiteno turns into a winter’s tale. The beautiful town is located at nearly 1,000 metres above sea level and allures with romantic alleys and relaxed atmosphere. Enjoy the particular charm of the town in the Advent season.
The Advent in South Tyrol is a constant rediscovery of new flavors and aromas, cosy lights and traditions. The right atmosphere to get in the mood for Christmas and let the stress of everyday life melt away.
he Christmas Market of Bolzano is the most frequently visited Christmas Market of South Tyrol and Italy. However, also in Merano, Bressanone, Brunico and Vipiteno, every year on Christmas time, there are lovely Christmas Markets, spreading a romantic atmosphere, the sweet flavour of Christmas bakery and Christmas sounds.
In Christmas time, Merano is completely taken in by a cheerful atmosphere. As we couldn’t resist, we went to experience this special feeling from different angles. In our tour we met a woodcarver from the Valgardena valley, tasted delicious wines at Castel Rametz and listened to hunting horn blowers at Castel Tirolo.
The Christmas market of Bressanone is a real pleasure for the senses. Once a year Brixen turns into a gorgeous sea of lights. The smell of gingerbread, roasted chestnuts and punch is in the air. Experience with us a real Christmas fairyland and find one of the most precious Christ Children in the crib museum at the Hofburg.
Chains of light, festoons, the sweet flavour of cinnamon and Christmas bakery in the air, solemn Christmas songs all over… this is how the centre of Bolzano presents itself in Christmas time.
It is among the smallest but most romantic Christmas markets of the country. The Forst Christmas Forest in Lagundo. A haven in the best time of the year. How the junior director of the Forst brewery Cellina von Mannstein fills the garden with life and cares for the attention to details – come with us!
Live the Christmas season at the Bressanone Christmas Market. There you will find lots of original gift ideas and local crafts. The aroma of culinary delicacies and mulled wine fills the air. Enjoy this special atmosphere at Piazza Duomo.
Winter at the wine village of Caldaro is quiet and peaceful. On the weekends open festively decorated market stalls all over the village centre. Christmas trees and angels ensure the right Christmas atmosphere and there is also a framework programme for both adults and children.
Almost every little village offers its own Christmas Market in South Tyrol, but only five markets belong to the original Christmas Markets: Bolzano, Merano, Bressanone, Brunico and Vipiteno are the cities in which you can find the traditional markets.
Various attractions, Christmas music all over, the flavour of Christmas bakery in the air and a glass of hot mulled wine… a solemn atmosphere characterizes the five original Christmas Markets.
