Star Advent at Kaprun Castle

Star Advent at Kaprun Castle 2026

For two Advent days Kaprun Castle turns into a market: exhibitors inside the old walls, a children's programme, readings and concerts. For me this is the market where the setting does half the work, a castle above the village, snow all around, and craft and punch inside.

Location: Kaprun Castle, Burg Kaprun, 5710 Kaprun
Dates: 5 – 6 December 2026 · Sat & Sun 10:00–18:00
