Kirchheim Advent – Alpine Ski and Spa Advent in Bad Kleinkirchheim

The spa and wellbeing village of Bad Kleinkirchheim offers a peaceful counterpoint to the pre-Christmas rush under the motto “Warm around the heart.” Between the snow-covered Nockberge mountains, the St. Kathrein and Thermal Römerbad spas, and the atmospheric village centre, a harmonious interplay of crisp winter air, glowing lights, and cosy comfort unfolds.
The heart of the experience is the hut village on the newly designed village square: Over four Advent weekends and 13 market days, more than 30 exhibitors present regional crafts, culinary delights, and gift ideas. In cooperation with Genussland Kärnten, show chef Marco Krainer cooks live on selected Saturdays – a culinary highlight featuring regional products.
Gentle live music – from jazz/pop/swing to classical and traditional brass bands – accompanies the market atmosphere; the highlight is the charity concert on Saturday, 20 December, featuring the VolksKrocha. Families will find a lovingly designed children’s area in the spa park, with atmospheric lighting, a snow hill, an elf hut, and a craft station.
This is how the Kirchheimer Advent becomes a celebration of quiet moments: authentic, calm, and welcoming.
