The Christmas village of Moena, the Fairy of the Dolomites, in Val di Fassa
This edition has not been confirmed by the organiser to date. We recommend checking before going.
The Fairy's Christmas Markets bring the historic centre of Moena to life every winter. Known as the Fairy of the Dolomites, this charming village in the Val di Fassa, in the province of Trento, lies in the heart of the Trentino-Alto Adige region. When the first snow blankets the streets and festive decorations light up the facades, the town turns into a small, enchanted village where you can stroll until late afternoon among crackling bonfires, soft lights, and the scent of mountain pastries.
The market is spread across the historic centre, between Piaz de Ramon, Piaz de Sotegrava, and the Piazzetta Perla Alpina, where seventeen traditional wooden chalets are set up. Inside, you will find local handicrafts, regional gourmet delicacies, and souvenirs, all within an intimate and authentic setting that reflects the valley's Ladin traditions. Your stroll is accompanied by numerous roving musical performances that warm the atmosphere along the village streets.
The Fairy of the Dolomites pays special attention to the little ones. In the village, children can ride the antique carousel in the company of forest elves, take part in creative workshops with entertainment, and watch fun shows. In Piaz de Ramon, the magical house of Santa Claus comes to life, a must-visit destination for families during the holidays.
Among the most evocative experiences are the romantic horse-drawn carriage rides, which depart from Piaz de Ramon and take visitors from one square to another, also crossing the characteristic Turchia district. It is a poetic way to discover the village wrapped in the Christmas atmosphere.
Admission to the markets is free of charge. The event is organized by the Moena Hoteliers Association and is one of the most beloved winter attractions in Val di Fassa, combining Christmas shopping, traditional craftsmanship, and the typical hospitality of the Dolomites. A perfect stop for those spending their holidays in the snow and wishing to experience the magic of Christmas in an exceptional alpine setting.
