Camporeale Living Nativity

2025-2026 edition: the third edition

The 3rd edition of the Camporeale Living Nativity was held over five evenings on December 26, 27, and 28, 2025, and January 3 and 4, 2026, from 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM. Promoted by the Sant'Antonio di Padova Parish, it confirmed the event's growth, with over five hundred attendees on the first night alone.

The La Torre district, behind the Prince's Palace, transformed into a village of yesteryear: over eighty actors brought blacksmiths, embroiderers, cobblers, shepherds, butchers, greengrocers, carpenters, and potters to life. Along the route, visitors were able to taste warm ricotta, focaccia, wine, chickpeas, biscuits, and sfinci, immersing themselves in the atmosphere of the Sicilian Christmas up to the Nativity grotto, which was also accessible to visitors in wheelchairs.

Evenings: December 26, 27, and 28, 2025; January 3 and 4, 2026.

Time: from 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM.
