CHRISTMAS HIGHLIGHTS IN GRAZ

The highlights of the Advent season in Graz - from 11/21 to 12/24/2025

In addition to its Christmas markets, all of which are within easy walking distance to one another, Graz offers plenty of additional highlights during the Advent season: the 35-ton nativity scene made of ice with its life-size figures, the Advent calendar projected onto the town hall at the “Christkindlmarkt” on Hauptplatz or the nativity trail in Stempfergasse are just a few of the seasonal highlights on offer.
