The event, now in its 32nd edition, features the enthusiastic participation of about forty exhibitors who, in the charming village, will surprise numerous visitors with their Christmas products: decorations, nativity scenes, handmade products, and many sweet and savory proposals such as the typical brazedel di Siror, the Trentino zelten, charcuterie, honey, fritters, and many other delights!

Who wants to help the little birds and small forest mammals decorate their homes against the cold? We invite you to a special workshop in a full winter atmosphere.
