Events during Christmastime

Christmas program and map for “Advent in Baden”

Perchtenlauf
Sunday, 01st Dez. 2024, 5:00 PM, Inner City

Perchten are mythical, fearsome figures, typically depicted with wild, grotesque masks and costumes, who are believed to drive away “evil spirits” during winter festivals, especially around Christmas and New Year's. With their intricately designed masks and impressive costumes, the groups march through the streets. Their route starts at Kurpark and extends through the entire city center, ending at Josefsplatz.

Electro Advent
Saturday, 21st Dez. 2024, 5:00 PM, Hauptplatz

The collective "Spätschicht" transforms the Baden Hauptplatz into a festive dance floor. National DJs will heat up the crowd from the balcony of the city hall, while serving punch and “Glühwein.” The celebration continues with after-parties at Zone 21 and Melkerkeller.
