C'era una volta un presepe sull'acqua

Christmas Eve in Comacchio is an event that delights the senses and warms the heart. During the festive season, the historic centre is transformed into a magical place, suspended between tradition and natural beauty.

In the late afternoon of 24 December, the streets of Comacchio begin to animate: at 5 pm, the traditional “Bambén” ceremony will be held at the cathedral, which involves the blessing of the nativity scene statues. At 6 p.m., the atmosphere becomes even more colourful when the Trepponti, one of Comacchio's most iconic symbols, becomes the stage for a fireworks display that fascinates young and old alike
