Schloss Hof Christmas Market
(Registration must be returned by 7 April 2017)
About us: MTS – Marketing Tourismus Synergie Wien GmbH
As new organiser of the Schloss Hof Christmas Market starting from 2017, we would like to use the
opportunity to reposition the market as a unique advent experience. We have been organising the
Christmas Market Schloß Schönbrunn since 1994, where about 80 exhibitors present their
handicraft from Austria and neighbouring countries to approximately 1 million visitors each year. To
address the increasing popularity and demand for themed markets, we successfully initiated the
Easter Market Schloß Schönbrunn in 2003 with about 60 exhibitors per year.
What is important to us:
When organising markets, we put great emphasis on promoting handicraft as well as offering
personal service to exhibitors. We also focus on the uniqueness and quality of products as well as
a uniform and attractive overall design.
Concept:
The Schloss Hof Christmas Market will give market visitors numerous opportunities to interactively
experience the advent period, surrounded by the four cornerstones handicraft, gastronomy,
concerts and children’s world. The core points of the new concept are the following:
Promotion of handicraft - There is a limited number of booths available to artisans at a
special price for live demonstrations of their handicraft. Furthermore, artisans have the possibility
to participate at a special price on selected weekends only.
Range of high-quality and personal gift ideas as well as regional cuisine - priority given to
regional Christmas products
Comprehensive accompanying programme - handicraft demonstrations, children and
family world, palace concerts
Strong recognition value - differentiation from other Christmas markets in Lower Austria and
Vienna
Uniform overall design with a clear reference to Christmas and Schloss Hof (huts in their own
design)

Visitors:
With over 65,000 visitors last year, the Schloss Hof Christmas Market is enjoying increasing
popularity. Apart from families from Austria and neighbouring countries, a growing target group is
day tourist groups and individual travellers from Lower Austria and Vienna who wish to
experience a traditional rural Christmas. The entrance fee for adults is € 6 (reductions for children and
families). By paying an additional charge of € 7, visitors can also explore the palace’s staterooms as
well as various temporary exhibitions.
Location:
Schloss Hof, which is of great importance in art history, lies with its baroque gardens and Meierhof in
eastern Lower Austria, close to the Slovakian border.
Map data: © Google (2017), GeoBasis-DE/BKG (2009)
The Christmas market extends over a large area (see plan in appendix): it reaches from the
Landstraße to the square between the orangeries (northward) and continues to the Meierhof
(Herrenhof and interior); to the south, the market reaches the palace’s courtyard (Arkadenhof).
Visitors using public transportation can take a free shuttle bus between Marchegg train station and
Schloss Hof. By car, it is a 45 minutes’ drive from Vienna. There are enough free parking spaces
available for cars and buses in front of the palace grounds.
