As the days grow shorter and the anticipation for Christmas increases, the time for special encounters, touching stories, and unforgettable musical moments begins.

A festival for the whole family!
The opening will be on Sunday, November 29 with the premiere of the musical play Die Schneekönigin, freely based on the famous fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen. The timeless story about friendship, courage, and the power of love will be brought to the stage by the young director Johannes Czernin with much imagination and sensitivity. This beautiful piece will be featured several times throughout December and January in the program of the Immling Winterfestival.
Musically, the festival presents itself in a multifaceted and atmospheric way. The grand traditional Adventskonzert on Sunday, December 6 at St. Jakobus invites you to pause and let festive sounds prepare you for the Christmas season. The festival orchestra, more than 100 small and large singers, as well as renowned soloists promise a special musical evening.
For those who prefer a lively atmosphere, they can look forward to exhilarating Big Band Jazz on Saturday, December 12. And even after that, the musical festivities continue: With Swinging Christmas the Heinz Dauhrer-Susi Weiss Quartet will create a cheerful Christmas atmosphere on Friday, December 18. An international highlight is Feliz Navidad: On Friday, January 8 the program brings Mediterranean temperament, rhythmic diversity, and pure joy of life into the winter season.
A special highlight for young and old dance enthusiasts is Bobo & Susu on Saturday, December 19.
