Tips & Advice

  • Come on a Friday if you want a later evening visit, since the market stays open longer on Fridays than on any other day.
  • Weekend visitors can arrive earlier in the day, because the market opens sooner on Saturdays and Sundays than on weekdays.
  • Dress the kids warmly, since the carousel, Ferris wheel and sweet stalls are all outdoors in front of the Franziskanerkirche.
  • Families can still stop by on December 24, when the market opens for a shorter daytime session before Christmas Eve.
  • Download the GrazMobil app to buy public transport tickets cashless by card or Apple Pay before heading into the city centre.
