Advent at the Castle

The third traditional event at the Bratislava Castle, Advent at the Castle, will focus on the tradition, family and helping others. The main idea is to celebrate Advent with a good mood.

Already on November 30, 2018, 14 stalls with refreshments and Christmas products will be opened. Be sure not to miss typical Christmas goodies such as lokša, Roma-style roasted pork, bread with pork fat and fresh waffles, great punch, mulled wine and warm tea.

Children can look forward creative workshops where they can learn how to create toys from tusk or the art of glass painting. Every Wednesday adults will have the opportunity to create their own wooden laser-cut Christmas ornamentation using decoupage technique. At the weekend concerts of a jazz diva Jana Gavač, Chick2Chick, or the popular cimbalom band Ľudovka will surely please everyone who enjoys good music.

As part of the event Advent at the Castle, a great charity crowdfunding event will take place. Visitors will be able to give away blankets or old leash and collars for Sloboda zvierat (Animal Freedom). School supplies, personal hygiene products, or English books – all these are welcomed contributions to the children’s home in Uganda. You can also join a great charity event St. Nicholas socks giveaway prepared in cooperation with the Slovak Catholic Charity.
