Fai Sotto le Stelle

An evening market under the stars of the Paganella

Fai Sotto le Stelle is the summer staple that transforms the center of Fai della Paganella into a lively open-air market every Friday evening. The setting is Piazza Italia Unita, the heart of the village overlooking the Paganella plateau, where artisans, creatives, and designers set up their stalls to showcase handmade goods, decorations, jewelry, and small works of craftsmanship. The initiative is promoted by the Dolomiti Paganella Tourism Board as part of the extensive summer calendar of the Municipality of Fai della Paganella, in the province of Trento, Trentino-Alto Adige.

How the evening unfolds

The market opens in the late afternoon, starting at 5:00 PM, when the warm mountain summer light invites you to stroll leisurely among the stalls. As evening falls, the atmosphere heats up: live music accompanies your walk, and at 9:15 PM, an entertainment show takes the stage, gathering residents and tourists in the village center. It is a simple, convivial formula designed to bring the village streets to life on summer nights and to showcase the work of local artisans.

What to expect

• Evening craft market with exhibitors, creatives, and designers.
• Live music along the streets of Piazza Italia Unita.
• Evening entertainment show at 9:15 PM.
• Free admission and a family-friendly atmosphere.
