Mercatini di Natale di Piazzola sul Brenta

Christmas indoors in Piazzola

The Mercatini di Natale di Piazzola sul Brenta (Christmas Markets of Piazzola sul Brenta), in the province of Padova, have a special formula: they take place entirely indoors, in the Sala Filatura of the Polo Fieristico dell'ex Jutificio Camerini (Exhibition Centre of the former Camerini Spinning Mill), a historic space, restored and heated, just a short walk from the majestic Villa Contarini. A solution that shelters from the cold and bad weather, allowing you to enjoy the Christmas atmosphere in complete comfort.

Crafts and zero-km products

The protagonists of the markets are the agricultural producers, the exhibitors of artistic crafts, the food operators, and the third-sector organisations. Among the stalls, you can find handmade creations, zero-km agricultural products, gastronomic specialities, and gift ideas, in a route that highlights the Paduan territory and its excellences.

Entertainment and food

Alongside the stands, refreshment areas and entertainment activities engage children and adults, in a festive atmosphere that accompanies the community towards the holidays. The event is promoted by the Città di Piazzola sul Brenta with the contribution of the Chamber of Commerce of Padova and the collaboration of Coldiretti, trade associations, craft exhibitors, and Pro Loco Piazzola APS.

Piazzola sul Brenta and Villa Contarini

Piazzola sul Brenta is famous for its Villa Contarini, one of the most imposing Venetian villas, overlooking the town's large square. The Christmas markets are an opportunity to visit the village during the most evocative time of the year, combining shopping, food, and heritage.
