The programme 2025/26
City with mountain culture

Quaint little wooden huts, the old town with its medieval flair and the snow-covered Kronplatz in the background: one thing blends into another at the Bruneck Christmas market. The Christmas atmosphere, traditional craftsmanship and fragrant treats invite you to take a relaxed stroll between lovingly decorated stalls. Over a cup of mulled wine or an espresso, you will succumb to the special mix of Alpine Christmas tradition and Italian lifestyle. Just around the corner is the historic Stadtgasse with its pretty shops and cosy cafés. And a few metres higher up, skiers and winter sports enthusiasts can let off steam on the freshly groomed slopes of Kronplatz.

Crafts & culinary specialities

From traditional woodcarving to creative jewelry and handmade wool products – the variety is impressive!

Culinary delights are sure to tempt you too – enjoy a hearty goulash soup served in a bread bowl or indulge in irresistibly sweet, freshly made Strauben.

Green Event

Behind the aroma of spiced drinks, the variety of products and the lively atmosphere of the Original South Tyrolean Christmas Markets is an event concept based on defined Green Event criteria.

 

For more than ten years, the Original South Tyrolean Christmas Markets have followed criteria covering, among other areas, resource use, mobility, waste management and catering.

 

Traditional and contemporary arts and crafts are offered in the wooden stalls, while food and drinks at the catering stalls are served on reusable tableware. LED lighting is used throughout the Christmas Market.
