The Advent market in Altenmarkt-Zauchensee, a picturesque jewel in the heart of Pongau in the Salzburg region, transforms into a magical winter world every year. Traditionally, this market takes place on the four weekends before Christmas, usually on Saturdays and Sundays, attracting visitors from near and far with its festive ambiance.
Surrounded by an impressive mountain landscape, Altenmarkt-Zauchensee provides the perfect backdrop for this festive market. The marketplace, the heart of the Advent activities, is encircled by historic buildings that give the market a unique atmosphere. These historic facades, bathed in soft light, create a sense of warmth and tradition.
The market stalls, artfully decorated, offer a variety of crafts, regional products, and Christmas delicacies. A distinctive feature of the Advent market in Altenmarkt-Zauchensee is its intimate, family-like atmosphere, which transports visitors into a world of tranquility and contemplation.
Visitors can look forward to a selection of traditional Austrian treats, from sweet gingerbread and roasted almonds to hearty specialties. Mulled wine and punch, available in many variations, warm the heart and are a must-try for every visitor.
What makes the market truly special are the large wooden angel gates and the extensive program of events, catering to all age groups. From musical performances to nativity exhibits and special activities for children – everyone can experience the magic of the Christmas season here.
The Advent market takes place annually, and therefore for the fifteenth time previsibly in December 2025 in Altenmarkt im Pongau.
