Festive atmosphere at the main square: new children's area and Santa Claus parade

An exciting event is imminent: The Krampus parade in Klagenfurt, which will take place on December 6, 2023, brings some exciting innovations to make traditional custom even more attractive. This year the Duke Bernhard Platz is used as a calm zone for children for the first time to give the little visitors the opportunity to experience the hustle and bustle in a relaxed atmosphere.

The route of the move has also been changed. It begins on Villacher Straße and leads via Duke Bernhard Platz to the main square, where moderator Seppi Rukavina will warmly welcome the various groups. The event is accompanied by an impressive Bartl exhibition, which will be shown in the shop windows of the city center by January 7th. There are impressive masks and costumes waiting to be admired. During the move, extensive roadblocks will apply to plan the flow of traffic and to ensure the safety of all participants.

Nikolauszug as highlight

Another highlight of the festival is the Nikolus parade, which will also take place on December 6th and will arouse particular joy among the children. Santa Claus will not only move through the streets, but also offer a small history hour that will certainly make the little ones shine.

The announcements should ensure that the Krampus parade will be an unforgettable experience for the whole family, and the organizers have tried to make the tradition exciting and at the same time family-friendly. These positive changes hope to address both the younger and older visitors and pass on the fascination for the Krampus and its customs.
