Quick Actions

Tips & Advice

  • Arrive early on event days, especially for the 'Discesa dell'Angelo' and fireworks, as the town can become very crowded with thousands of visitors.
  • Check the specific schedule for 'La discesa dell’Angelo' and the fireworks display, as these are timed events and popular attractions.
  • Explore the 'Percorso dei Presepi' and artistic dioramas; these are often spread throughout the town and offer a quieter, more contemplative experience.
  • Take advantage of the 'I Piatti dell’Avvento' gastronomic route to sample authentic local Christmas dishes and enjoy the festive culinary offerings.
  • Consider visiting on a weekday if possible, though the main events are on Sundays, to experience a potentially less crowded atmosphere.
