The Valley of Nativity Scenes and Christmas Markets

From December 7, 2025, to January 6, 2026, Val di Rabbi transformed once again into the Valley of Nativity Scenes, with life-sized artisan nativity scenes scattered among the hamlets, dedicated to the ancient trades of rural mountain life.

The novelty of this edition was the Christmas markets, proposed for the first time in the valley in five locations: Pracorno (December 4), Ceresè (December 7), Piazzola (December 11), Penasa (December 18), and San Bernardo (December 29). In San Bernardo, markets were also held with musical accompaniment, traditional sweets, mulled wine, and workshops for children on December 23, 27, 30, and January 1.

At the San Bernardo Information Office, visitors collected the nativity scene map, gathering numbered stickers to receive a Val di Rabbi branded souvenir. Santa's House, set up in the church square, remained open until January 6.
