Salzburger Christkindlmarkt: Christmas magic or too early for mulled wine?

The festive atmosphere of the Salzburg Christkindlmarkt fulfilled the city on November 21 with the opening of its 50th season. Although the tradition is an integral part of the pre -Christmas period, ask whether people are actually already in the Christmas mood. On a tour of the market we heard about it.

The first guests already enjoy the cool winter air while trying hot beverage specialties such as mulled wine and punch and on the sweet scents of roasted almonds. The Christkindlmarkt attracts visitors from near and far and offers a variety of delicacies that appeal to the senses.

conversations about the Christmas mood

"Are you already in the Christmas mood?" We asked the first parties in the market. One of the visitors, Sarah, says: "Slowly it comes. There is still a bit missing." Your answer reflects that many more is necessary for many to completely immerse yourself in the mood.

It is different for Rebecca who works in a honey and gingerbread hut. It cannot get enough of the special atmosphere of the market: "Yes, of course, if you work here, the Christmas mood comes immediately."

Other market visitors, such as Franzi, Nina and Sophia, agree that they are already very much in the Christmas mood. It seems as if the enthusiasm for the upcoming festival is slowly tangible, especially for those who actively participate in the preparations.

beverage preferences and prices

When it comes to the classic Christmas drinks, the diversity of opinion is great. When asked "Mulled wine or punch?" The visitors seem to have a clear preference. While some are determined for the mulled wine, others prefer the fruity punch. Despite different tastes, visitors agree on another question: The prices for punch and mulled wine should range between four and six euros. This consensus shows that you also pay attention to a good price-performance ratio in the festive delights.

The anticipation for the upcoming holidays is noticeable on the market, and the first impressions of the Christkindlmarkt show that it is still a popular attraction in the city. It remains to be seen how the Christmas mood will develop in the coming weeks, while the fairy lights illuminate the market and slowly get closer to the festive time.
