Winterland 2026/27

From November 19, 2026, to January 6, 2027, Locarno will be transformed into an enchanting winter village with Winterland: an immersive experience that warms the heart and captivates all the senses.

From the historic ice rink to live concerts, from the Christmas market to children's entertainment, from ice mini-golf to culinary specialties to be enjoyed in the most characteristic dining spots—such as the Chalet della Fondue and street food stands—every detail is designed to offer authentic emotions and unforgettable moments.

To make the atmosphere even more magical, the fairy tale “Nel cuore del tempo” (In the Heart of Time) comes to life thanks to an immersive audiovisual show that illuminates Piazza Grande and Piazza Magnolia, transforming Locarno into a veritable theater of lights and wonder.
