From Saturday 24th November 2018 to 6th January 2019, Como hosts 40 exhibitors offering gastronomic products of different traditions, gift ideas and objects.
Piazza Cavour and Via Plinio become the heart of Città dei Balocchi, with all the characteristic wooden houses, markets and wonderful Christmas light shows.
You can taste sweets, cheeses, wines and much more. Also you can find very special gift ideas, in preparation for Christmas gifts.
In Piazza Cavour there is also an ice rink, for the happiness of children...
This event every year attracts many tourists from Italian and foreign cities, and has become a great tradition for the city of Como and a wonderful initiative to spend the Christmas holidays, walking along the lake.
But not only in Como, events and markets can be found in many cities on the lake, many initiatives in the area, especially for children.
The lake is a marvel of nature 365 days a year, and every season gives it different characteristics ... but Christmas makes it magical!
