Do we need a ticket for the Advent wreath?

Yes, but it's free. Book a free ticket on the Bellevue Noël website ("Kranz buchen") before you go up. The rest of the market needs no ticket.

Can we sit down for a proper meal?

The Fondue Chalet sits upstairs, above the market, and takes reservations online, groups included. The chalet and bar stay open later than the market: until midnight Monday to Saturday and 11pm on Sundays.

Is it accessible with a stroller or wheelchair?

The organizer builds the market to be barrier-free and inclusive. The visitor info page has the details, in German.

About

Bellevue Noël is a Christmas market on Sechseläutenplatz, between the opera house and the lake, with more than 100 food and gift stalls, music and a fondue chalet upstairs. Kids head for their own area of small houses, with crafts, painting, a carousel and a kids' bar. At the center stands a walk-in Advent wreath with a view over the market and the lake.
