Kitzbüheler Advent - Christmas Market

From 19 November to 28 December 2025, a Christmas magic fills the historic city center at the annual Christmas Market. Wednesday to Sunday, always from 2.00 pm to 8.00 pm, festively decorated stalls invite visitors to stroll and linger. Live music from local groups creates a contemplative mood. Those who want to warm themselves from the inside will find something at the numerous mulled wine stands, which offer the ever-popular classics as well as specialties such as mulled Uhudler. You will also find a fine selection of Christmas street food - from doughnuts to crêpes and Tyrolean delicacies, there is something for every taste.

The most beautiful anticipation of Christmas for children is certainly writing the wish list to the Christ Child with all the gifts that you would like to unwrap under the tree on Christmas Eve. What could be more magical than writing and sending the wish list directly at the Christmas market? Direct delivery to the Christ Child is virtually guaranteed in this festive environment.

Like every year, this year the popular Christkindlpost from Kitzbühel Tourism will take place again. Our Kitzbühel Christkindlpost is located by the carriage in the courtyard of the district administration building. The children drop their own message to the Christ Child in the mailbox and Kitzbühel Tourism forwards it directly to the Christ Child.

Social and service clubs take operate the Christmas Market hut alternately, with a special focus on social responsibility, incusion and sustainability. The goal is to raise funds and support people with Handicaps. In the midst of the festively decorated downtown, the huts open their doors every weekend to welcome visitors from near and far. This special place serves not only as a meeting place for fellowship and enjoyment, but also as a platform to do good.
