The magic of the Christmas season welcomes residents and visitors alike with a series of events for all ages — surrounded by lights, wreaths, and beautifully decorated trees! As always, great attention will be given to environmental sustainability, reducing impact and energy consumption through a carefully planned lighting schedule with specific switch-on and switch-off times, and the exclusive use of low-consumption LED technology.

Three large ice-skating rinks will be ready to welcome you throughout the holidays: the rink in Piazza Mercato in Marghera is perfect for family fun. In Piazza Ferretto in Mestre, you can skate in the heart of the city, illuminated by the glow of the grand Christmas tree. And in Campo San Polo in Venice, enjoy the unique experience of skating surrounded by the charm of the historic city.

Concerts, entertainment, and games for children and adults will make the Christmas atmosphere even more special, with events designed to engage the whole family.

The Christmas markets, with their lights, scents, and traditional products, will be the perfect place to find unique gifts, taste local specialties, and soak up the festive spirit. A magical little train will travel through Mestre’s shopping streets, discovering the luminous sculptures along the way!

A rich program of activities and surprises will accompany us throughout the pre-Christmas period and continue through (and beyond) Christmas, celebrating together the magic of the holidays.

And on New Year’s Eve, the fun doubles: two different celebrations to bid farewell to the old year and welcome 2026 — one in the lagoon and one on the mainland — featuring great music and the unmatched spectacle of fireworks. Two locations, two different emotions, one great start to 2026!
