Giardini di Natale
The Christmas markets of Asiago, between lights and wooden chalets
About Giardini di Natale
Christmas in the mountains in Asiago
When the first snow arrives, Asiago dons its festive attire: the Giardini di Natale (Christmas Gardens) are born, the Christmas market that enlivens the center of the main town of the Altopiano dei Sette Comuni. The main squares – Piazza Carli, Piazza II Risorgimento and Piazza Duomo – fill with sparkling lights, decorations, and wooden chalets.
Craftsmanship and flavors of the Altopiano
Artisans and local producers exhibit in the chalets: handmade items, wood, glass, and ceramic decorations, scented candles, lanterns, home textiles, wool hats, and natural products. There are also food stalls with mountain specialties, from polenta with Asiago DOP cheese to sandwiches, from mulled wine to hot chocolate.
A family-friendly market
The Giardini di Natale focus heavily on families: among the initiatives are the "enchanted forest" and Santa Claus's house, designed for children. An opportunity to experience Christmas outdoors, in one of the most beloved locations in the Vicenza Dolomites, in the province of Vicenza.
Giardini di Natale — edition 2026
The 2026/2027 edition of the Giardini di Natale will bring the Christmas market back to Asiago in the central squares, from November to Epiphany. As tradition dictates, the wooden chalets will host local artisans and producers, with food stalls and family-friendly activities. The precise schedule will be published by the Municipality of Asiago in the autumn.
