Tips & Advice
- Do your craft shopping in the daytime, because the Christmas shop closes much earlier than the food huts, and it opens only late in the afternoon on Advent Fridays.
- Drop the kids at the forKIDS programme at the Garni Café Sport so they can do crafts in the warm while you browse.
- Come on December 7 for the traditional Krampus parade, or on December 31 when the market stays open late for the New Year's Eve party.
- Keep your receipts from village shops and restaurants for a chance in the Three Peaks Christmas Lottery.
- Dress warmly for an evening outdoors, since the music happens outside at the Music Hut stage in the village centre.
