Your Winter Programme at the Grand Hotel Zell am See
When the scent of roasted chestnuts fills the winter air and a cup of warm punch warms your hands, it is time to leave everyday life behind for a while. In December 2026, the Christmas market at Pinzga Bräu by lake Zell invites you to discover regional delicacies, hand-knitted treasures and a warm welcome on the shores of Lake Zell.
Over three weekends, our Christmas market in Zell am See offers a lovely opportunity to slow down and savour the festive season. Whether you visit with family, friends or someone special, take your time to chat, taste and explore.
Three Stalls Filled with Festive Cheer
Mulled Schilcher Wine, Punch and Roasted Chestnuts
What would a Christmas market be without warming drinks and the familiar aroma of roasted chestnuts? At our first stall, enjoy mulled Schilcher rosé wine, warm punch and freshly roasted chestnuts. With a warm cup in hand, gather together and get into the Christmas spirit.
Traditional Specialities from the Pinzgau Region
Discover the flavours of our region at the second stall, where Pinzgauer Bladln, Bauernkrapfen, Klotznbrot, Speck and other local delicacies take centre stage. From traditional fried pastries to dried-fruit bread and cured bacon, there is plenty to tempt you. Sweet or savoury, these regional favourites offer a delicious taste of Pinzgau cuisine.
You might discover a new favourite or rediscover a flavour that brings back fond memories of Christmases past.
Hand-Knitted Gifts and Little Treasures
If you are looking for a thoughtful Christmas gift, make your way to our third stall. Browse hand-knitted hats, gloves and other knitted accessories, alongside a selection of charming little gifts. Find something special for a loved one or treat yourself to a cosy companion for the winter months.
