About Mercatino dell'Immacolata
Christmas at the Foot of Monte Rosa
The Mercatino dell'Immacolata (in French Marché de l'Immaculée) is the Christmas event in Champoluc, the main tourist resort in the municipality of Ayas, in Val d'Ayas (Aosta province). It takes place in the charming small square by the tourist office, set up with traditional wooden chalets hosting the exhibitors.
Local Products and Aosta Valley Craftsmanship
The stars of the market are the agricultural producers from Ayas, Aosta Valley craftsmanship, and small local businesses. Among the stalls, you'll find mountain cheeses and cured meats, honey, jams, Christmas sweets, wooden and wool items, and handmade decorations and gift ideas: an opportunity to buy authentic products and support the local economy of the Aosta Valley, far from mass production.
A Festive Atmosphere for the Whole Family
With festive lights, the aroma of mulled wine and sweets, and the charm of the snow-covered landscape of the Monte Rosa valley, the Mercatino dell'Immacolata is an event designed for families and ski holiday tourists. A pleasant way to discover the Christmas traditions of this corner of the Aosta Valley and start the festive season.

The 2026 Mercatino dell'Immacolata in Champoluc is anticipated, as usual, for the December Immaculate Conception long weekend.
