Santa’s Village 2026

Christmas markets, Father Christmas’s little train and entertainment throughout the city.

On the opening day, from 10am to 7pm the show The Grinch’s Tale, performed by the ArteMakìa Acrobatic Troupe, and a gospel concert will take to the stage.

The Grinch has stolen the spirit of Christmas and all seems lost… A journey into the past begins to uncover the fate of the future, featuring breathtaking acrobatics, poetic aerial choreography, circus apparatus, zany elves and heart-wrenching laughter. Who will save Christmas?

Sometimes it takes just a moment for a heart to break. An unspoken word, a judgemental glance, and someone is left out… This is how the Grinch’s resentment begins: not from malice, but from loneliness. In that loneliness, he felt winter in his heart. Left outside a door, a home, a laugh…

Sometimes we forget that what makes us a community is not that we are all the same, but that we stick together, despite our differences. Yet every community has a healing power: the memory of the good we’ve done together, of shared smiles, of moments when we’ve felt part of something greater.

That’s why, before the story continues, we pause for a moment to look back at where we’ve come from, to remember what unites us. At Christmas we are reborn, like many lights coming on in the same window.
