From 26 November 2022 to January 8, 2023, the lakefront and historic centre are filled with thousands of visitors who come to experience the magical Christmas atmosphere and event-packed programme. For the first time, Christmas in Bardolino will extend to Carrara Bottagisio Park, which will host the ice rink and Ferris wheel, while the traditional carousel and interactive Santa's sleigh will bring festive cheer to Piazza del Porto. On the lakefront, dozens of companies offer their high quality products: from traditional food and wine to local crafts, along with original home-made Christmas items.

Among the innovations this year: a Christmas train for children, a carousel and three months of unmissable theatre shows! Strolling through the historic centre, visitors can enjoy a visit to the church of San Severo with its adjoining “Sala della Disciplina” concert hall, the Church of San Zeno and the parish church of San Nicolò, enveloped in a magical Christmas atmosphere and the twinkling lights that turn Bardolino into a beautiful Christmas village on the shores of Lake Garda.
