About Natale in Città

From late November to Epiphany, Pioltello experiences its 'Natale in Città' (Christmas in the City): a widespread calendar of events starting with the lighting of the large Christmas tree and the patron saint's feast day of Sant'Andrea, and concluding with Epiphany. Christmas lights, Dancing Fountains in Piazza dei Popoli, the St. Lucia Fair, Santa Claus Village, gospel concerts, and solidarity events accompany the city throughout the festive season.

A month of festivities in Pioltello

Natale in Città is the Christmas program of the Municipality of Pioltello, a town in the eastern hinterland of Milan within the Metropolitan City of Milan. It's not a single event, but a widespread calendar that accompanies the community from late November until Epiphany, with events held in the historic centre and its hamlets (Limito, Seggiano).

The program is promoted by the municipal administration together with Pro Loco Pioltello Bello and local associations, combining institutional moments, popular celebrations, and solidarity initiatives. It's Pioltello's way of creating a festive atmosphere, involving families, children, and the elderly.

From the Christmas Tree to Epiphany

The festivities kick off with the lighting of the large Christmas tree and the inauguration of the Christmas lights, coinciding with the patron saint's feast day of Sant'Andrea (November 30th). Among the events marking the season are the Dancing Fountains, a show of water, light, and music in Piazza dei Popoli; the St. Lucia Fair in the historic centre; Santa Claus Village in Limito; gospel concerts; a celebration for the elderly; and, to conclude, the Epiphany celebration with music in the piazza in Seggiano. All events are free.
