German term or phrase: Anbetung vor der Wunderhostie / Hochfest der Geburt Christi
This again is taken from a list of events leading up to and during the Christmas period in the Tyrol
i.e. SEEFELD 19:00 Uhr: Anbetung vor der Wunderhostie

And can "Hochfest der Geburt Christi" simply be translated as Christmas Service?

agree  Jo Bennett: Actually, yes, the initial caps are better, and the Solemnity etc is good too.

Adoration of the miraculous host / Festive Celebration of the birth of Christ


Explanation:
See the links below for the term "miraculous host". "Anbetung vor der Hostie" can also be translated "Service of Benediction". And I think you need something a bit more special than "Christmas Service". Sounds as though Christmas in Seefeld is a bit special!
