Tips & Advice
- Arrive early for the 'Spettacolo di luci danzanti' to secure a good viewing spot, as shows occur every 30 minutes and can draw crowds.
- Check the specific times for Santa Claus's appearances and Gianni Potter's storytelling sessions, as they are limited to certain dates and times.
- Consider visiting on a weekday evening to experience the light show with potentially fewer crowds.
