Tips & Advice

  • Because the gathering takes place directly on Domplatz, dress warmly for an outdoor visit and be prepared for late-November weather.
  • Choose Saturday for an earlier start: the event opens at 14:00, while Friday's opening starts at 18:00.
  • Leave time to appreciate the setting between Liebfrauenkirche and the cathedral; the historic surroundings are central to the visit.
  • Wear comfortable shoes for moving around the outdoor square, and add warm layers for the November evening hours.
