St. Ambrose's Day Market
The Oh Bej Oh Bej Fair is the most traditional and popular event of the Sant’Ambrogio week in Milan. This celebration, which has been anticipating the Milanese Christmas for five centuries with sweets, surprises, and curiosities, takes place every year around December 7th, the city's patron saint's day. The edition runs from December 5th to 8th, animating the areas around the Sforzesco Castle and the Sempione Park. You can find stalls selling local handicrafts, traditional sweets, toys, flowers, books, and honey. There are also ironworkers, copper and brass craftsmen, chestnut vendors, and "Firunatt" or "Firòn" sellers.
