Terni

Province of Terni · Umbria · Italy

Admission and costs
The squares and city walk are free. CAOS costs €5 full price, €3.50 reduced, for the Aurelio De Felice and Claudia Giontella Archaeological museums; free admission has specific eligibility rules. Refreshments and other Christmas attractions are separate.
Getting there
From Terni station’s bus terminal, CAOS lists routes 8/E624 or 2, 5, 6/E622. Start at Via Franco Molè 25, then continue towards the centre: this visit excludes the separate Segantini commercial village at Strada Maratta Bassa 91.
Time to allow
Allow around 4 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
Focus on the two CAOS museums at Via Franco Molè 25 instead of the squares. Regular opening is Thursday–Sunday, 10am–1pm and 4–7pm; the €5 ticket covers the collections rather than city attractions.

Aosta

Aosta Valley · Italy

Admission and costs
The walk among the Marché Vert Noël chalets in Piazza Chanoux is free. Shopping and refreshments have their own costs; MAR and the other archaeological sites use separate ticketing and are not included in the market.
Getting there
Replacement buses serve the Ivrea–Aosta railway until 13 December 2026: the final leg during early Advent is therefore by bus. From Aosta’s railway and bus-station area continue on foot towards Piazza Chanoux, the market venue.
Time to allow
Allow around 4 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
MAR, the Regional Archaeological Museum, stands at Piazza Roncas 12. It offers an indoor alternative exploring regional finds; admission uses the combined archaeological ticket, separate from the free walk among the market chalets.

Christmas in everyday life

The Singing Christmas Tree in Werdmühleplatz, Zurich, in an archive press photograph. This is not a performance from the 2026 edition.
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.

TO DISCOVER

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.
