The second lockdown also has an impact on the Christmas markets. These should have opened in the course of November. The inauguration of the Vienna Christmas Dream has been postponed until early December.
The measures announced by the federal government to combat the coronavirus, the second closure, have an impact on the Christmas markets, which should have opened in the course of November. Due to announced regulations, this is not possible at the moment. The organizers of the Christmas market at Rathausplatz and the associated Christmas dream are sticking with the event for now. The opening will be postponed to early December.
“Depends on development”
Therefore, construction work continues on the Wiener Rathausplatz and the neighboring Rathausplatz. “Depending on the development of the infection, the goal is to open the Christkindlmarkt and Little Ice Dream in the Rathauspark on the basis of applicable legal provisions and a well-founded security concept in early December,” said a broadcast from the organizers on Sunday.
For the city of Vienna it is important “that the popular traditions of the Viennese can be experienced even in difficult times,” argued adherence to the market. “The Vienna Advent Highlights are meant to give a sign of confidence.” The opening of the Christkindlmarkt and Christmas Dreams was originally scheduled for mid-November. Due to the second blockade in Austria, this is now not possible.
But: The necessary preparatory work should continue in the coming weeks, according to the broadcast. The goal is to open in early December, depending on the development of the infection process. Then, at the same time as the lighting of the Christmas tree in the town hall square, the atmospheric lighting of the park was promised, including the path of the crib and of course the tree of the heart popular for all.
