VIENNA, Austria -

- Magic of Advent in Vienna Ablaze in New Lights This Year

In the middle of Vienna, between City Hall and the Burgtheater, you will find one of the most beautiful winter wonderlands: Vienna’s Magic of Advent with its famous Christmas market. Even the youngest visitors walk around with their eyes wide open and wonder about the many surprises the Magic of Advent in Vienna has to offer. Adults stroll leisurely through the park or take in the pre-Christmas hustle and bustle of the Christmas market: because soon it is the time of the year again…

This year, a completely new lighting concept ensures that Magic of Advent in Vienna shines in an even more beautiful luster. That’s enough details for now - because the most traditional and most child-oriented Christmas market will finally open its doors again on 14 November.

At the Christmas market itself, the air is full of aromas from punch, chestnuts, gingerbread and roasted almonds. Here, the mix of impressive traditions and new gift ideas provide for a special flair. Visit the festively decorated stands to find a variety of gift ideas for loved ones or classic and unusual Christmas decorations.

Children in particular will want to visit the People’s Hall of Vienna City Hall, where under expert guidance they can try their hands at crafts and baking in the ‘Christ Child’s Workshop’. The homemade gifts are especially popular with parents and grandparents.

In the weeks before Christmas, the lovingly decorated City Hall Park is the ideal place for a romantic stroll. The famous Vienna Herzerlbaum with its 280 bright shining hearts, the Post Office in the Clouds, the Reading Tower, or the Christmas Express are just some of the many highlights. At the Magic of Advent in Vienna and at the Christmas market, visitors can forget the hectic rush of Christmas and immerse themselves into a pre-Christmas atmosphere.
