The magic of Christmas for the whole family is at Christmas Village in Milan, where dreams meet reality and bring to life many Christmas-themed games, shows and entertainment.

In the center of Milan, in the historic and evocative Indro Montanelli Public Gardens, also known as Giardini di Porta Venezia or Giardini di Via Palestro, the idea was born to make Christmas come alive in an evocative way for everyone, from the oldest to the youngest. Thus, on December 6, 2008, thanks to an innovative concept conceived and developed by Ambra Orfei and Gabriele Piemonti, the first edition of the Village of Wonders was inaugurated: an event of the Christmas holidays also strongly desired by the City of Milan and the Department of Sport and Leisure.

The Village of Wonders is thus conceived as the first example of a "Christmas theme park." The success of the format has made The Village of Wonders one of the most anticipated events during the holiday season , and over the years to date it has seen the alternation of new features, new attractions and animations, and new sets, making it an unmissable event over time!

Find out more and the many upcoming events on the Village of Wonders website.
