Christmas markets outside the cities

The Tyrolean Advent in the Castle will be taking place in the historic ambience of Tyrol Castle. Tyrol Castle provides an atmospheric backdrop for a genuine South Tyrolean Christmas experience. Local exhibitors will present traditional handicrafts such as felting, pottery, turning, spinning, braiding, dyeing and the production of ceramics or jewelry in the castle's rooms. There will be a well-balanced program of events for visitors every day during Advent in the Castle: whilst crackling fires make for a cozy atmosphere, food stands will offer traditional dishes, baked goods and drinks. The Christmas market will also be attended by choirs and music groups, and there will also be all kinds of entertainment for children.

This year, the Sterntaler Christmas Market in Lana becomes even more inviting. The enchanting backdrop of the historic Capuchin Garden contributes to the cozy atmosphere, hosting nearly 20 Christmas stalls during the Advent weekends – from November 28 to December 25, 2025. Small fir trees adorned with shiny red ornaments and the warm glow of luminous spheres surround the lovingly decorated stalls offering genuine South Tyrolean handicrafts. An engaging program for the whole family – including ponies and sheep, a glitter workshop, and a hands-on circus, all set to the sounds of festive live music – completes the experience and promises unforgettable moments of enjoyment. On December 31, 2025, only the culinary stalls will be open.

The Capuchin Garden with the Sterntaler Christmas Market is already open from 10.00 a.m. on the first day of Advent - the official ceremonial opening takes place at 5.00 p.m.. A Christmas theatre performance will frame the festivities.

Peaceful and Authentic Ambience at the Ritten Christmas Market. Delicious local treats, traditional and high-quality arts and crafts are waiting for you, accompanied by a lovely entertainment program with concerts, live nativity sets and lots more. Cozy, well almost contemplative – that’s the best way to describe the ambience at Ritten's Christmas Market, the Christmas Train Market (“Christbahnl”). The snow falls softly from the sky, Christmas carols gently jingle across the square and a fragrance of freshly baked goodies fills the winter air. That’s why the Christmas Train Market offers a comforting contrast to the hustle and bustle of many other Christmas markets in South Tyrol. Here, the calm and peace of the holiday season remains preserved. The gourmet stands at the markets in promise comfort and feel-good food of finest quality along with delicious hot punch to warm you right through to your bones. The small but exquisite Christmas market takes place in four different locations: in Oberbozen at the Ritten railway station and in the village centre of Klobenstein, as well as in the railway station building in Klobenstein and in the historic Plattner Bienenhof in Wolfsgruben. The Ritten Railway connects the locations every half hour. Entertainment program: www.christbahnl.it
