The most magical day of the year is closer and closer: Christmas is coming and the people of Venice are ready to embrace it full arms.

During the holidays the lagoon fills up with lights, music and decorations: you will be able to walk through the calli (the typical narrow streets) and recognize the scent of just-baked sweets, decorated trees and warm vin brulé (mulled wine). At Campo San Polo an ice rink will be set up, suitable for both kids and adults; in Strada Nuova, also, you are going to find a collection of markets that go from Campo di san Felice to Campo dei Santi Apostoli: the best opportunity to take some christmas presents for relatives and friends.
If you want to go outside Venice, remember that Mestre and Jesolo will host music events and christmas markets for the whole month.
