For 27 days, the "Großer Markt" (Main Market Square) in front of the historic town hall will transform into more than just an atmospheric meeting point—it will become a magical setting for wonderful encounters. The "Montabaur Christmas Magic" (Montabaurer Weihnachtszauber) will feature a dazzling and diverse stage program, inviting everyone to celebrate the pre-Christmas season together.
The Advent calendar on the historic town hall, paired with the "Advent Stage," once again serves as the heart of the Christmas festivities in the town center. Every day at 5:00 p.m., a new window on the Advent calendar will light up, accompanied by an entertaining program presented by various children’s groups. Following this, popular musical acts and artists will take to the Advent Stage, providing the perfect live soundtrack for visitors to enjoy alongside their mulled wine or punch.
With a Sunday shopping event on November 29 to mark the opening the pre-Christmas season in Montabaur promises to leave nothing to be desired.
