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.

Rovereto

Autonomous Province of Trento · Trentino-South Tyrol · Italy

Admission and costs
The chalet circuit through the central streets can be explored freely. Purchases and food cost extra; Casa Depero and Mart have their own tickets, while individual Christmas programme activities follow their specific admission terms.
Getting there
Arrive at Rovereto railway station on the Brenner line and walk towards the centre via Corso Rosmini. The chalets form a loop between Via Roma, Via Tartarotti and Piazza Erbe, best explored on foot rather than looking for one enclosed entrance.
Time to allow
Allow around 3 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
Casa Depero, Via dei Portici 38, is the indoor art alternative in the historic centre: adult €7, family €14. The ticket covers the museum, not the market; opening follows the Mart museum calendar.
Route and accessibility
Casa Depero is accessible. Conditions vary at other stops on the Christmas route.

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.

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.
