Help us improve this list of Austria Christmas Market dates!

Will Krems have a Christmas Market this year ?
Thanks
Hi Christina, great news! There will indeed be a Christmas market in Krems this year (assuming everything goes to plan). You can find more details here: https://www.krems.info/advent-in-krems
The date for the Salzburger Christkindlmarkt is wrong per the link you list. 23 November, not 21 November. I send a ton of traffic to this site because it’s usually more reliable, but I’m starting to second guess that.
Thanks for spotting that! We’ve made the correction now.
