CHRISTMAS IN CORTONA

LIGHT & REFLECTION IS THE CHRISTMAS THEME FOR 2023 WITH IMAGINATIVE PROJECTIONS & INSTALLATIONS...

This year's theme for Christmas in Cortona is Light and Reflection and as of Saturday 8th December when the Christmas lights were first turned on, the beautiful projections on the town hall and surrounding buildings have been admired by many. The large installation of mirrored cubes in Piazza Signorelli, along side wooden market stalls selling Christmas fair and a giant blue-lit Christmas tree - under which one can walk - have also created a magic display of light and colour which seem to enthrall children and adults alike.

Larger than life dancers on stilts put on a great show on December 8th
