Pesaro

Province of Pesaro e Urbino · Marche · Italy

Admission and costs
The square and stalls can be explored freely; purchases and refreshments cost extra. Casa Rossini costs €7 full price and Palazzo Mosca €10; the €14 combined ticket includes both and other venues in the museum circuit.
Getting there
For arrival by car, use Il Curvone car park on Viale dei Partigiani, identified by the municipality for access to the centre. Continue towards Piazza del Popolo, keeping the market, Via Rossini and Piazza Mosca in one urban itinerary.
Time to allow
Allow around 4 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
Move your market time indoors to Palazzo Mosca at Piazza Mosca 29. The Civic Museums require their own ticket and close on 25 December and 1 January, so they are not a backup on those dates.
Where to park
Il Curvone car park is on Viale dei Partigiani. Continue towards Piazza del Popolo.

Vipiteno

Autonomous Province of Bolzano · Trentino-South Tyrol · Italy

Admission and costs
Allow separately for food and craft purchases. The Civic and Multscher Museum has its own admission, included for eligible activeCards; any ascent of the Torre delle Dodici depends on specifically scheduled openings.
Getting there
Arrive at Vipiteno–Val di Vizze station on the Brenner railway and continue towards the historic centre and Piazza Città. The market gathers beneath the Torre delle Dodici, providing a clear starting point for a compact town visit.
Time to allow
Allow around 3 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
The Civic and Multscher Museum is a separate indoor cultural alternative. Visits follow the museum’s calendar rather than the market calendar; the municipality publishes admission conditions and reductions.
Where to park
Park at the lower Monte Cavallo cable-car station and continue on foot towards Piazza Città.

Christmas in everyday life

TO DISCOVER

In Zurich the Christmas tree really sings. And you want to leave!

Red capes, green branches and dozens of voices: the Singing Christmas Tree is also a tree made of people. From 19 November to 23 December 2026 a square in the heart of Zurich is once again filled with music. And the concerts are free.

CHRISTMAS: THERE IS MORE THAN ONE STORY IN THE NATIVITY SCENE!

Shepherds and Magi meet in our cribs. In the Gospels, they come from two different stories waiting to be discovered.
