The Graz Krampus Parade in 2026 will transform Karmeliterplatz and Freiheitsplatz into a vibrant setting for this traditional custom. The event is set to begin at 2 pm, with the main parade commencing at 6 pm.

Attendees can enjoy a children’s program starting from 2 pm at Freiheitsplatz. Simultaneously, live music and a DJ will entertain visitors at Karmeliterplatz throughout the afternoon and into the evening, including a performance by TORIA, a contestant on “The Voice of Germany.”

The main parade features numerous Krampus groups presenting their elaborately designed masks and impressive costumes, creating spine-tingling moments. A large food area will also offer a varied selection of dishes and beverages. Tickets for the event are available in advance via oeticket. Organizers have noted that this 2026 parade will exceptionally occur on November 8, before the traditional start of the Krampus season (which follows November 11), due to extensive construction work and a clash with other major events.
