Adventlounge Schmiedgasse

The Adventlounge Schmiedgasse transforms one of Graz's historic shopping streets into an upscale Christmas experience that stands apart from traditional markets. Located between the Rathaus and Landhausgasse, this sophisticated advent lounge features five high-quality advent huts adorned with illuminated arches and stars, creating an elegant festive atmosphere in the heart of the Styrian capital. What distinguishes this market is its focus on premium offerings and comfort. The carefully curated selection includes exquisite punch varieties and regional culinary delicacies served in four cozy lounge areas. Each seating area is thoughtfully equipped with blankets and furs to keep guests warm while they savor their beverages and food. Light compositions enhance the upscale character of the venue, making it perfect for those seeking a more refined Christmas market experience. The market emphasizes accessibility with wheelchair-accessible seating and height-adjusted tables for visitors with disabilities. As an extension of the main Christkindlmarkt at Hauptplatz, the Adventlounge Schmiedgasse offers a more intimate and sophisticated alternative to larger Christmas markets. The combination of premium food and drink, comfortable lounge seating, and elegant lighting creates an atmosphere ideal for relaxed conversations and romantic evenings. Visit during the late afternoon to experience the magical transition as the light installations illuminate the historic street.
