Gravinae Nativitas – Ancient Crafts in the Nativity Scene

The third edition, also known as the "Geopresepe" in honor of the UNESCO recognition of the Alta Murgia Park, took place in the Fondovito district of Gravina in Puglia during the weekends of December 7-8, 2024, and January 4-5, 2025. The inauguration on December 7 was opened by the Grand Procession of the Roman Empire, with evening performances in Piazza Notar Domenico, while the final day culminated with the procession and arrival of the Magi. The edition totaled nearly 40,000 official visitors: 8,437 on the opening night, over 9,000 on the day of the Immaculate Conception, and nearly 14,000 on the final evening of January 5.
