The Nativity comes alive in the historic park of Terni with over a hundred performers
The Living Nativity at Parco Le Grazie is one of the most beloved Christmas events in Terni. In the evocative historic city park, over a hundred costumed performers bring to life a path of recited scenes, ancient crafts, and animals, recreating the atmosphere of the Nativity in a green setting.
The initiative is described by the organizers as a collective story involving volunteers, actors, and families, with the aim of bringing visitors closer to the authentic meaning of Christmas. The public is guided in controlled groups along the different stations of the nativity scene, in a participatory and emotionally impactful experience.
Promoted by the Confraternity of San Giuseppe and San Francesco di Paola in collaboration with the Municipality of Terni, USL Umbria 2, Vivi Terni, and various local associations, the living nativity scene is also an occasion for community gathering. A craft market accompanies the path, showcasing the traditions and products of the Terni area.
The 2026/2027 edition of the Living Nativity at Parco Le Grazie reprises the Christmas event in the historic park of Terni. The format remains the same with over a hundred costumed performers, recited scenes, ancient crafts, and animals along the path, with visits in controlled groups.
The precise schedule of openings and times will be announced by the Confraternity of San Giuseppe and San Francesco di Paola and the Municipality of Terni in the weeks leading up to the holidays, following the usual pattern concentrated between late December and Epiphany.
The detailed schedule for the 2026/2027 edition will be communicated by the organizers closer to the holidays. The established format includes:
Parco Le Grazie is located in Terni; entry is from the parking lot of the Rehabilitation Center. Terni is reachable by train (Rome-Ancona line) and by car from the E45 and SS Flaminia.
Visits in controlled groups (maximum 150 people per session) in the evening hours. Appropriate clothing for an outdoor path is recommended.
