Christmas in Bardolino

The 2025/2026 edition of Christmas in Bardolino, from November 22, 2025, to January 6, 2026, animated the lakefront and historic center with the usual village of lights and attractions. The market chalets, inaugurated at Parco Carrara Bottagisio, were open on weekends in November and December and daily from December 19th to January 6th. On December 6th, the patron saint Saint Nicholas was celebrated with Holy Mass and the lighting of the large tree in Piazza Matteotti, accompanied by the choir of the Associazione Moderna Bardolino. On December 31st, the lakefront hosted the big New Year's Eve party with live music by the Kriss Groove Band, "low sound" fireworks, and a DJ set until 2 AM. As every year, the underwater nativity scene set up in the ports of Bardolino and Cisano was evocative.
