Christmas in Cervia
The Christmas atmosphere pervades Cervia and Milano Marittima with an air of festivity: the glittering illuminations throughout the town, shopping among the festively decorated shops and Christmas markets, and Christmas music.
In Cervia, the Cervia Christmas Family exalts traditions, with the salt nativity scene, the nativity scene on the water on a historic burchiella, and the Christmas village, with its small houses of flavours and crafts. In the main square twinkles the bright and large Christmas tree, with a skating rink next to it.
In Milano Marittima with XMAS Arts - Christmas is a work of art, traditions combine with the contemporary with scenographic installations.
A rich programme of events, music, attractions and activities for the Christmas festivities.
Saturday 30 November at 3.30 p.m. is scheduled for the inauguration with a ribbon-cutting ceremony by Mayor Mattia Misissiroli in Piazza Garibaldi in Cervia. The mayor will then inaugurate the initiatives in Milano Marittima at 4.30 pm.
