Mercatini di Lavarone
When the first snows cover the treetops and the air becomes crisp, Alpe Cimbra transforms into a fairy-tale place, letting its unique charm shine during the Christmas season. Advent and Christmas festivities are not just a time to celebrate, but a sensory experience that envelops anyone who decides to visit this beautiful area of the Trentino Alps. The resorts of Folgaria, Lavarone, Lusérn and the Vigolana Plateau prepare to welcome visitors with a series of events, Christmas markets and a festive atmosphere that warms the hearts.
The enchantment of the Lavarone Christmas market
Among the most anticipated events is definitely the Lavarone Christmas Market, which takes place in the historic hamlet of Bertoldi Veci. Now in its fifth edition, this event offers a journey into the flavors and colors of Christmas. Strolling through the narrow streets adorned with dimmed lights, visitors can admire the typical “vòlto,” ancient porticoes from rural times, which seem to tell stories of a distant time.
The rich offer of exhibitors gives the opportunity to discover local crafts and gastronomic delights, such as the warmth of wine or apple mulled wine and genuine polenta accompanied by cheese from the Alpe. Christmas music resounds in the air, making each day a moment to be lived intensely.
The dates: Dec. 30-01, 2024 – Dec. 07-08, 2024 – Dec. 14-15, 2024 – Dec. 21-24, 2024 – Dec. 26 – Jan. 05, 2025
Folgaria: The Christmas Village
The center of Folgaria, during the Christmas season, is dressed up for the holidays. Sparkling storefronts light up the streets and restaurants offering traditional menus invite irresistible gastronomic stops. With events that multiply in December and the big New Year’s Eve party in the Piazza, Folgaria becomes an attractive hub for those seeking a convivial Christmas.
The “Bolkhent” event, which welcomes the Christmas season, is a central moment in this joyous atmosphere. With a parade through the heart of the village it culminates in the lighting of a massive Christmas tree at the Church of San Lorenzo, bringing a touch of magic and community that makes the atmosphere even more special.
Be sure to mark December 7, 2024 in your diary for this extraordinary celebration.
Lusérn: Tradition and silence
If you are looking for a Christmas of tranquility, Lusérn is the ideal place. This charming village, one of the most beautiful in Italy, evokes the serenity and warmth of Cimbrian traditions. Walking through its streets, enveloped in silence and snow, you can fully immerse yourself in the festive atmosphere. The town’s restaurants offer traditional local dishes, while artisans and producers gather to present artwork and culinary specialties typical of the holidays.
Here, “Bolkhént” is the welcome that will make you feel at home, and “Guate Boinichtn” the wish for a merry Christmas accompanied by the beauty of Cimbrian culture. Two words in the melodious Cimbrian language: Welcome and Merry Christmas!
