Just before it starts, someone still needs something from Wolfgang Haider. The chairman and chief organizer of the “Salzburg Christmas Market” association, which has always organized the market in Salzburg’s old town, is very busy. Tomorrow, Thursday, the 48th edition of the Advent magic around the Salzburg Cathedral begins. There are 96 stands this year. “We had the normal fluctuation and reassigned a few stands,” says Haider. 7.5 stands change on average per year. If you want a stand, you have to apply and prove yourself. For a four meter stand, at least 3,700 euros will be charged for a good six weeks.
