Things are going to get devilishly lively at the opening of the Herberstein Advent! As soon as the sun begins to set and the Stubenberger Singverein and General Manager Doris Wolkner-Steinberger have kicked off the festivities, the Perchten will take center stage in the animal kingdom!

The "Harter Devils" Perchten Association transports the audience back to a time when people still feared long, dark winter nights and believed in ghosts, witches, mythical creatures, and other sinister figures. This gave rise to countless myths, fairy tales, and dark legends! The Harter Devils—17 devils and one witch—are bringing these customs back to life!
The event concludes with an exciting fire show in the Advent Village.

Opening of the Advent market on Sunday, November 28, at 4 p.m., featuring the Stubenberger Singverein and the “Harter Devils” Perchten Association.
