The Christmas market in the heart of Vicenza's historic center
The Christmas Village in Piazza Biade is the market that, from late November until Epiphany, transforms one of the most evocative squares in Vicenza's historic center into a corner of Christmas magic. Piazza Biade, nestled between Piazza dei Signori and the Basilica Palladiana, hosts the characteristic wooden houses in an unparalleled monumental setting.
The wooden stalls offer gift ideas, handcrafted items, typical local products, accessories, clothing, and gastronomic excellences. Amidst sparkling lights and festive scents, the market offers an experience that combines Christmas shopping, tradition, and conviviality.
Organized in collaboration with the Municipality of Vicenza, the Christmas Village is part of the broader program of Vicenza's Christmas celebrations, which enlivens the squares and streets of the historic center. In recent editions, the stalls have also extended to Piazza San Lorenzo, expanding the route through local and national crafts, handmade creations, and food and wine specialties.
For the winter of 2026-2027, the Christmas Village in Piazza Biade will once again animate Vicenza's historic center, with wooden stalls between Piazza dei Signori and the Basilica Palladiana. Following the pattern of previous editions (in 2025 from November 28 to January 4), the market is expected from late November 2026 until Epiphany. Precise dates and detailed program will be announced by the Municipality of Vicenza in the autumn months.
The detailed program for the 2026-2027 edition will be published in the autumn months. The formula with wooden stalls, gift ideas, crafts, typical local products, and gastronomic specialties, in the heart of Vicenza's historic center, is confirmed.
Piazza Biade is in Vicenza's pedestrian historic center, a few minutes' walk from the train station. By car, take the Vicenza Ovest or Est exits from the A4 motorway, with parking available near the center.
Access to the market is free. Typical hours: Monday to Thursday 10 am-7 pm, Friday, Saturday, and holidays 10 am-9 pm, Sunday 10 am-8 pm.
