Christmas Village

A month of celebration in the historic center

The Christmas Village 2025 kicked off on Saturday, November 22, and enlivened the old town of Bisceglie until December 26, every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday starting at 6:00 PM. Low-energy lighting and upcycled decorations illuminated alleys and squares in a 100% sustainable setup, curated by the volunteers of the Associazione Borgo Antico.

Program and highlights

The grand Santa's Village in Piazza Duomo hosted creative workshops, face painting, and meetings with Santa Claus for families. Every weekend, Christmas carols, storytellers, and street entertainment accompanied the evenings: among the events, on Sunday, December 7, the Echovibes duo (Gioia Squeo and Corrado Camporeale) performed in Piazza Duomo, and on Monday, December 8, "The Magic of Notes" with Francesca Rumma. Local restaurateurs offered a culinary trail featuring typical Puglian Christmas dishes.

Solidarity

Along Via Cardinale Dell'Olio, the Solidarity Market supported the collection of basic necessities for Caritas Bisceglie. The free event was realized in collaboration with the Municipality of Bisceglie, Confcommercio, Assolocali, and local entities.
