Christmas music, homemade desserts, local handicrafts, typical Apulian products offered directly from the wooden houses with traditional Christmas decorations. It’s a magical world that seems almost unreal!

Christmas Market among the Trulli

The event will unfold through the streets and squares of the town: from Piazza del Popolo in Largo Martellotta to then reach Largo Trevisani and Largo Pietra Ficcata. There are loads of scheduled events as well as magnificent Christmas-themed shows.

The little ones won’t want to miss Santa Claus who will welcome them in his trullo-shaped house to take beautiful souvenir photos and to collect their letter. Even adults will be enchanted by this magical scenario thanks to the music and performances by street artists.
