The Montagsmarkt crew's winter living room returns to Oerlikon for seven weeks — a bar for Glühwein and cocktails, changing street food, DJs and live music in the salon, and free entry throughout.
Villa Bimbam runs from 5 November to 20 December 2026, Thursday to Sunday, 17:00 to 22:00. It has moved indoors to Halle 550D on Birchstrasse, by the MFO-Park — earlier editions were an outdoor hut village on Max-Frisch-Platz at Bahnhof Oerlikon.
The format is a seasonal event location rather than a restaurant: seating nooks and a living-room bar serving hot chocolate, coffee and cake, Glühwein, apéro and cocktails, with rotating food vendors and a programme that swings between creative workshops, design, street food and music. Selected DJs and occasional live acts play the salon.
Two runs sit inside it. Fondue Disco takes Thursday to Saturday from 5 November to 5 December, cheese fondue with disco, by reservation. The Heiliger Bimbam Christmas market fills two long weekends — 10 to 13 December and 17 to 20 December — with free entry.

From our guides to Zürich
- October's New Openings — and Which Ones You Can Actually Book for an Event
A pop-up brasserie you can take over for 24, a guild-house hall in Bern's old town, a dinner show for the Christmas party, and a Thai canteen in Geneva you can hire on Saturdays — the October openings worth knowing about, and what each one is actually good for.
- September's New Openings — and Which Ones You Can Actually Book for an Event
An event hall built entirely for private hire, a lakeside cocktail bar already taking Christmas dinner enquiries, a rebuilt techno club that doubles as a corporate party room, and a 700-year-old Altstadt house for the client dinner that matters — the September openings worth knowing about, and what each one is actually good for.
