The best Christmas and New Year’s Eve celebrations

Experience the festive season in the Wilder Kaiser region

Christmas New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day

The festive season around Christmas and New Year is just round the corner, and the Kaiser-Orte Ellmau, Going, Scheffau and Söll are showing their contemplative side. The Advent and Christmas markets in the region are the perfect way to soak up the festive atmosphere whilst enjoying hot drinks and Tyrolean specialities. New Year’s Eve promises atmospheric moments amidst the Tyrolean mountains: whether it’s a festive dinner in one of the first-class restaurants or events leading up to New Year’s Eve and the New Year’s reception in the four holiday resorts.

This page provides an overview of the numerous Christmas and New Year’s Eve events as well as the activities taking place in the Wilder Kaiser region during this time.
