Festività natalizie

Buon Natale 🎄e Felice Anno Nuovo 🎊 con questo racconto scritto pensando a tutti i nostri amici legati in diversi modi a Torino, al Piemonte, agli appassionati di lingua e cultura italiana, e naturalmente a tutti coloro che amano la tavola.

Che il 2021 vi porti qui da noi 💝

the new year in Turin

Ideally the Holidays in Turin should last at least 2 weeks from around December 21st to January 7th to have enough time to do some Christmas shopping and organizing some days. Always consider that on the holidays and national days, most Italian businesses and museums are closed 😟

As we have already given you a preview of our very own Turin Christmas this post is about the days that straddle the old and the new year with a link to La Befana day aka January 6th, nobody would want to miss her, right?

Happy Holidays!

La Befana in Turin

The countdown has started and la Befana is ready to take off on her broomstick to visit all the kids and deliver them the stocking filled with sweets or coal.
