The Christmas Festival refers to the tradition of the nativity scene. During the festival, it becomes a living space filled with merry carolling. The idea of the event is to create the festive and magical aura of Christmas in the heart of Lublin. Every year the nativity scene is rearranged, and the city is decorated with colourful Christmas illumination and Christmas trees. These December days offer a great atmosphere in the unworldly setting of Lublin’s Old Town. Traditionally, the festival opens during the Old Town Christmas Eve organised by the local Dominican friars. The scene hosts games and competitions for children, Christmas concerts by popular performers; it is also a meeting place for the residents and visitors throughout the holiday season, uniting everyone in singing and rejoicing. Christmas Festival in Lublin will last until January, 9.
The programme includes concerts, city game, culinary and handicraft workshops.
Detailed information is available at the Festival’s website.
