All details on the Advent and Christmas Markets in Salzburg

The so-called Christmas Markets in Salzburg are a major attraction. From the end of November, you can experience the unique Christmas Markets directly in the centre of Salzburg. Here, you not only purchase presents and souvenirs, but you also get to know unique culinary specialities from Salzburg.

During the Advent season, the baroque town centre becomes decorated and spruced up. In many places in Salzburg, a Christmas Market awaits you. The most beautiful of them are the traditional Salzburg Christmas Market on the cathedral and residence square and the Hellbrunn Advent festivities outside the city gates.   

Salzburg Christmas Market The most well-known Christmas Market in Salzburg is most probably the original Salzburg Christmas Market. It takes place on the perimeter of Salzburg cathedral. On the cathedral square and residence square, you can purchase special souvenirs at several festively decorated stalls. It is here where traditional handicraft businesses offer figures for Christmas cribs, frankincense, Advent wreaths and much more. Even those who are feeling peckish are not neglected on the atmospheric Christmas Market. Underneath the cathedral arches, at the beloved “Advent meeting point” you enjoy mulled wine, many varieties of punch as well as sweet and hearty treats.
