A merry Bavarian Christmas to you

How does one say "Merry Christmas" in Bavaria? Is it Fröhliche Weihnachten? Frohe Weihnachten? Something else? I'm looking for the standard phrase people write in Christmas cards.

Best answer: Frohe Weihnachten (or Frohe Weihnachten und einen guten Rutsch) are probably most common, but Fröhliche Weihnachten is fine.
That's high German though, not Bavarian, but there are a lot of different Bavarian dialects so you'd have to be more specific about the region.

Response by poster: High German is dandy. Thanks!
