Good to know

In Brixen, the demand for quality and values is not limited to the Christmas market alone - the associated supporting programme has also been put together with a great deal of care and with the involvement of municipal organisations and associations.

• The pictures of the Advent calendar are designed by people with disabilities in the Wunderbar - Seeburg workshop.
• Selected products from the Vintlerhof, Weltladen Brixen Bressanone, OEW and Rex can be purchased at the FAIRStand.
• The programme in the town library is organised in cooperation with the town library, the OEW (Organisation for a Solidary World), REX, Weltladen Brixen Bressanone and the concept store WiaNui upcycled living. 
• Free traditional South Tyrolean snacks at the fireplace 
• Christmas biscuit baking for children at the Naturbackstube Profanter 
• The Christmas market cup designed by a Bressanone artist

The Original South Tyrolean Christmas Markets engage since over 10 years to reduce the event's ecological footprint. Here are some measures we implement:

• Careful waste separation and waste avoidance where possible
• Plastic-free event
• Offer vegetarian dishes and dishes that are largely prepared from regional, organic, seasonal and Fairtrade products
• Reusable tableware 
• Recycled paper is used instead of virgin fibre paper 
• Avoidance of aluminium portion packaging and beverage cans 
• Economical use of electricity and water
