Défilés de Krampus dans le Sud-Tyrol

May we briefly introduce ourselves? We are the most daring, adventurous, cheeky, bright, fiery, passionate, devilish boys and girls in Alta Pusteria. We are the ones who revive a real piece of South Tyrolean tradition every winter. We are the ones who make Sesto unsafe at the beginning of December. We are the BERGTOIFL SEXTEN. Are you brave enough to find out more? Fire & Flame - Visit us at the Krampus parade on 13.12.25 and let yourself be seduced into our world!

On Saturday, December 13, 2025, Kastelruth transforms into one of South Tyrol’s most spectacular winter stages! 52 Krampus groups with around 1,000 “Tuifl” from South Tyrol, Trentino, Austria, and Switzerland will turn the village into a thrilling inferno of bells, masks, and smoke. The festivities begin at 2:00 PM, with music, food, drinks, and a warm, festive Christmas atmosphere in the village center. At 5:00 PM, the grand Krampus Parade starts at the Middle School, moving along Paniderstraße, through the village center past the Christmas market, and onto the show stage at the Dolomitenstraße intersection, where the groups will present their devilish shows, hosted live by two moderators. The approximately 950-meter-long route is well secured, so families with children can enjoy the spectacle up close. Food and drinks are available along the route for spectators. The Parade lasts until around 7:00 PM, and then the celebration continues! Join the Krampus party in the underground garage as well as the various local club stands in the village, for an evening of fun that lasts late into the night. An unforgettable experience for young and old – loud, wild, mystical, and thrilling! Don’t miss it when the Tuifl take over Kastelruth…
