December is almost here and that means "Natale tra gli Olivi" - Christmas amid the Olives - and its traditional holiday events have arrived. Garda, a town in the heart of the Veronese section of Lake Garda, is the perfect travel destination thanks to the many important events and activities that fill the winter weekends. Many days are devoted to local food and wine as well as tasty dishes from other regions and countries. The city of Beilngries in Germany will present interesting objects from its "Technikmuseum" city museum, informative literature on the Altmühltal Natural Park, special Bavarian dishes, and folkloric music.

There will also be Tyrolean products from Innsbruck; fruits, cheese, and vegetables from Verona; and salamis, sweets, and typical dishes of Carrara, Pavullo in Frignano (Modena), Mantua, and Ostiglia.
During the entire period, Piazza Catullo and the Regina Adelaide Lakefront Boulevard will host a picturesque Christmas market that is the perfect spot for a relaxing stroll in the city center. Entertainment for kids, folkloristic activities, theater and music, art exhibits, and the large Nativity Scene of the town will keep visitors busy for the entire day and make them the protagonists of this big, fascinating Christmas festival on the Lake Garda.

Even the New Year will be celebrated with entertainment for all, starting with a festive dinner, a concert, and the traditional New Year's greetings. Six days later, the Epiphany celebrations with the Befana's bonfire, traditionally called "Bruiel", will conclude the Christmas festivities. On that occasion, you'll have a chance to taste the famous Sanvigilini cookies served with hot mulled wine.
