Christmas Market

The 2025 Christmas Market brought the Giardini Oasi of Barcellona Pozzo di Gotto to life from December 13, 2025, to January 6, 2026, curated by the associations Il Seme and ManiLab. The wooden stalls hosted artisans, bakers, hobbyists, and local merchants with crafts, local products, and gift ideas.

The market was part of an extensive Christmas program: on December 8, the lighting of the decorations and the inauguration of the Santa Claus House with bagpipers in Piazza Duomo; on December 13, the Forest of Lights in Piazza Oasi; and a series of concerts including "ENNIO" dedicated to Morricone (December 21) and "E scinniu la notti" with Mario Incudine with Mario Incudine (December 26). There was also the White Night, New Year's Eve in the square, theatrical performances at the Teatro Mandanici, and numerous activities for children until the Befana.
