From November 21, 2026 to January 6, 2027, the Christmas event "Natale a Como - COMO...che INCANTO!" returns to Como, animating the historic center with markets, attractions and shows. As in the 2025-2026 edition, the main squares host the characteristic wooden houses: about twenty in Piazza Perretta and others in Piazza Grimoldi, with handicrafts and gift ideas. Piazza Cavour hosts the ice skating rink (26x26 meters), while Piazza Duomo is illuminated with the large Christmas tree and projections on the facade of the Broletto and the Cathedral. The program, still being defined, traditionally also includes the carousel, widespread lights and the New Year's Eve fireworks. An event designed for families and visitors of all ages.
