Whether it's the fine scents of mulled wine and cinnamon, artfully designed gift ideas or lovingly curated designer pieces - Polarzauber brings people together, connects generations and creates moments to remember.
We produce 90% of our Christmas market in-house and in cooperation with all agencies of THRYVE Group AG. wetalkwithyou for the homepage, ticketing and digital solutions Promotion-Tools for the construction of over 120 wooden huts, logistics and staff.

One of the projects close to our hearts right from the start: we're bringing the Northern Lights to Zurich's main station.
We won't reveal any more about this yet - but we recommend that you always have your cell phone to hand when you visit, because it will be really "Instagrammable".
Our Fondue Express is enthroned high above the roofs of the Christmas market. A fondue restaurant with the romance of a train, first-class gastronomy and a unique view of the entire station concourse.
