Natale a Bardolino 2026: Christmas Village on the Lakefront

Natale a Bardolino (Christmas in Bardolino) returns to Lungolago Cornicello from 21 November 2026 to 6 January 2027. It’s the largest Christmas village on the eastern shore of the lake: wooden huts with crafts and local products, lights along the waterfront and family attractions, with the lake as a backdrop. In the 2025-26 edition there were over forty huts, a Ferris wheel, an ice rink and an underwater nativity scene facing the shore.

The period covers the Advent weekends, the Immaculate Conception holiday, the Christmas break and Epiphany: on public holidays the lakefront gets very busy, while on December weekdays it’s calmer. From Bardolino you can also easily reach the Christmas markets of Garda, Lazise and Peschiera.
