Intro

St. Gallen at Advent: City of Stars, November 26–December 24, 2026

Every year during Advent, the city of St. Gallen is transformed into a sea of more than 600 stars. They twinkle and dance in a light show designed specifically for the “City of Stars,” bathing St. Gallen’s Old Town—including the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Abbey District—in a magical glow. The atmospheric Christmas market on Gallusplatz, along with the specially decorated Christmas tree on Klosterplatz—right in the heart of the Abbey District—add an extra touch of festive Christmas cheer to the “City of Stars.”
