December 2, 2026 | 4:00 PM – 8:00 PM | St. Moritz, Switzerland

There is something particularly special about Christmas in the Swiss Alps.

Snow-covered mountains, illuminated streets, the warmth of alpine interiors and the anticipation of the festive season transform St. Moritz into an extraordinary winter destination.

On Wednesday, December 2, 2026, the heart of St. Moritz will embrace the spirit of the season with the St. Moritz Christmas Market 2026.

From 4:00 PM to approximately 8:00 PM, Plaza Mauritius and the pedestrian zone will be transformed into a festively decorated Christmas village where visitors can discover regional products, culinary specialities, handcrafted gifts and a varied musical programme.

With Elite Estates St. Moritz, this festive evening can become part of a complete winter experience — combining the atmosphere of the Christmas Market with the privacy of an exceptional alpine residence and personalised Concierge Service.

Christmas in the Heart of St. Moritz

As December begins, St. Moritz enters one of its most enchanting seasons.

On December 2, Plaza Mauritius becomes a festive meeting point for locals and visitors, creating an intimate Christmas atmosphere in the centre of one of the world’s most celebrated alpine destinations.

Beginning at 4:00 PM, exhibitors invite visitors to explore regional products, culinary specialities and handcrafted gift ideas.

Music will accompany the evening, with the detailed programme to be announced by the organisers.

As daylight disappears behind the mountains and the lights of St. Moritz begin to glow, the Christmas Market offers a wonderful opportunity to slow down and experience the destination from a more intimate perspective.

Discover Regional Products and Handcrafted Christmas Gifts

Christmas markets have always been about discovery.

Something handmade.

Something regional.

Something that carries the character of the place where it was created.

At the St. Moritz Christmas Market, visitors can explore a selection of regional products, culinary specialities and handcrafted gift ideas while enjoying the festive atmosphere of the pedestrian zone.

Rather than simply shopping for Christmas, the experience becomes an opportunity to discover a more authentic side of St. Moritz.

Find something special for someone at home.

Taste regional flavours.

Walk through the illuminated centre of town.

Or simply enjoy the atmosphere with family and friends.

Sometimes, the simplest moments become the most memorable.

A Different Expression of St. Moritz Luxury

St. Moritz is internationally known for extraordinary residences, legendary hotels, luxury boutiques, fine dining and prestigious winter events.

But the Christmas Market reveals another side of the destination.

Here, luxury becomes something quieter.

Time spent with family.

A warm drink on a cold December evening.

Music in the streets.

Handcrafted objects.

The mountains surrounding the village.

And the feeling that Christmas is approaching.

It is a reminder that some of the finest experiences in St. Moritz do not need to be extravagant.

They simply need to feel special.

Your Private Alpine Residence for Christmas

After an evening walking through the Christmas Market, imagine returning to the warmth and privacy of your own alpine residence.

Visit the Christmas Market as evening arrives.

Then return to the comfort and privacy of your residence.

Rather than simply staying in St. Moritz, you begin to experience what it feels like to live here.

A Christmas Experience for Families

The festive season has always been about sharing experiences.

For families visiting St. Moritz, the Christmas Market offers an opportunity to enjoy the destination together in a relaxed environment.

Walk through the decorated Christmas village.

Discover handcrafted gifts.

Enjoy regional specialities.

Listen to the music.

A private residence adds another dimension to a family stay.

Instead of returning to separate hotel rooms, everyone can return to the same home.

Breakfasts become family moments.

Evenings can be spent together.

And the residence becomes part of the memories created during the trip.

Begin the Winter Season in St. Moritz

The Christmas Market takes place at the beginning of December, making it an ideal occasion to experience St. Moritz as the destination enters its celebrated winter season.

The mountains, boutiques, gastronomy, culture and unmistakable atmosphere of the Engadin create countless possibilities beyond the market itself.

Spend several days discovering the region.

Explore St. Moritz.

Enjoy its restaurants and boutiques.

Discover art and culture.

Experience the mountains.

Or simply spend time in the privacy of your residence.

With Elite Estates as your base, the Christmas Market can become one beautiful evening within a much broader winter experience.

Christmas, Art and Alpine Culture

For guests interested in culture, the festive season can also become an opportunity to explore the artistic side of St. Moritz.

Through our Art Advisory Service, Elite Estates provides access to exclusive collections, private exhibitions and curated art experiences.

Combine an afternoon discovering art with an evening at the Christmas Market.

Or incorporate cultural experiences into a longer winter stay.

St. Moritz has always been a destination where nature, culture and international sophistication exist side by side.

Christmas adds another layer to that experience.

Give Yourself the Luxury of Time

The greatest luxury during Christmas may not be something you can wrap.

It may simply be time.

Time with family.

Time with friends.

Time away from everyday routines.

Time to walk through a Christmas market without needing to be anywhere else.

And time to return to a private residence where everything has been arranged around you.

At Elite Estates, we believe exceptional hospitality is not about filling every moment of your itinerary.

It is about giving you the freedom to enjoy those moments exactly as you choose.
