Santa Claus Market, Christmas Village and videomapping in the historic centre
Natale di Terni is the grand event that, from late November until Epiphany, enlivens the historic centre of the Umbrian capital. Markets, themed villages, luminous installations, games and solidarity initiatives involve the entire city, transforming squares and streets into a widespread Christmas trail.
The heart of the event is the Santa Claus Market, with its characteristic illuminated wooden chalets in Largo Frankl: a large emporium of gift ideas immersed in the scents of cinnamon, hot chocolate and mulled wine. Next to it comes to life the Christmas Village, with Santa Claus's house and fairytale atmospheres for families.
In Piazza Europa, a huge ecological and luminous tree is lit up, while Piazza della Repubblica hosts an enchanted carousel and an ice village with an enchanted forest, igloos, light trees and an ice-skating rink. Food stalls and craft stalls complete the market offerings.
Among the most spectacular novelties, from December 8th, the historic buildings of the Chamber of Commerce, the Municipality and the BCT are illuminated by spectacular Christmas-themed videomapping. Natale di Terni thus confirms itself as one of the most anticipated events of the winter in Umbria, capable of combining tradition, lights and fun for all ages.
The detailed programme for the 2026 edition will be published by the Municipality of Terni in the months preceding the event. The usual structure includes:
Terni is served by the railway station on the Rome-Ancona line and can be reached by car from the E45 and the SS Flaminia. The events are concentrated in the historic centre (Largo Frankl, Piazza Europa, Piazza della Repubblica, Piazza Tacito).
From late November until January 6th. Markets open on holidays and eves; videomapping in the evenings.
Free access to markets and installations; possible cost for the ice-skating rink and some attractions.
