This month Basel is imbued with Christmas spirit: anyone up for an afternoon walk across the historical center, to unveil the many surprises that the city prepared for us? We'll try to walk along the Nativity route ( https://www.krippenweg.ch/ ), so as to admire Christmas cribs, magic courtyards (like https://www.basel.com/de/attraktionen/zauberhof-by-johann-wanner-e6dd0f3543 ) and light shows (like the one at the town hall: https://www.basel.com/de/attraktionen/zauberhof-rathaus-7b082a3c29 ) Main event will perhaps be the 17:00 Advent Calendar show that will be staged at the theatre foyer: https://www.basel.com/en/attractions/advent-calendar-at-theater-basel-33e8b55cb2 We have no idea what the show will be about (I think the subject will be revealed the evening before), but we fully trust the organizers!
