Tips & Advice
- Leave the car at a park-and-ride site or city garage, since the city centre is well served by public transport and the markets are close together.

- Join in the communal Advent wreath binding if you want to try a Styrian custom and take home a wreath you made yourself.
- Bring the kids if they want to meet Nikolo and Krampus, who visit the market as part of its Styrian Advent traditions.
