Vienna Christmas Market 2026: dates, hours & map

Spittelberg's lanes work well before an evening at Rathausplatz, but their calendars are not interchangeable. A weekday start at Spittelberg is later, and its season ends three days before Rathausplatz.

  3. After 23 December, remove Spittelberg from the plan. The separate Ice Dream season does not extend either Christmas market.
