What to do in Catania in December 2021

As we have already pointed out, Catania in December offers a unique and inimitable atmosphere. Spending Christmas in Catania will allow you to keep authentic and wonderful memories.

At Christmas, Sicily in general becomes a very popular destination for tourists of all ages. Given the multiplicity of events, the city of Catania is ideal for the Christmas holidays both for family trips but also for young groups looking for fun and entertainment.

The folklore and liturgical events of the city manage to involve everyone and not just believers. The religious activities carried out at the cathedral are part of the culture and history of Catania and, for this reason, arouse the interest of every visitor. We know very well that the Cathedral and its grandeur would leave anyone breathless.

For Christmas 2021 in Catania the administration has foreseen the installation of new lighting to highlight all the monuments.

Christmas markets and illuminations

Catania Christmas markets

What you absolutely cannot miss are the beautiful Christmas markets in Catania. These are numerous installations usually present in via Minoriti but also in Montesano Street Store. Here all the typical handicraft products of the area are exhibited. Tourists greatly appreciate the handmade creations and do not miss the opportunity to buy some gifts for Christmas.

The lights in Catania are truly suggestive constructions. It is possible to witness the lighting of the Christmas tree entirely made up of lights. The tree is very impressive, in fact it reaches 12.5 meters in height and is always positioned at Piazza Università.

The colors that characterize it are always red and blue. The rest of the beautiful lights are mainly concentrated in via Etnea but, in general, the city is embellished in every corner. Don't forget to enjoy the beautiful Merry Christmas Market where you can buy Christmas-themed souvenirs and trinkets.

The activities for children are also very special. If yours is a family trip, don't forget the many initiatives aimed at children. It would be great for them to pay a visit to Santa's village to post the letter and participate in the Christmas-themed workshops.

Why rent a car in Catania

Renting a car in Catania during Christmas will allow you to optimize the time available and not depend on public transport. In fact, during the Christmas holidays, Catania becomes very chaotic and crowded.

The use of public transport combined with the crowds of tourists could make your trip very stressful. Owning a car, on the other hand, will avoid all these complications. Getting a rental car translates into autonomy and fun. Imagine how nice it would be to drive in the streets of Catania and enjoy the Christmas lights from the car window.

During Christmas then, the mobility in Catania changes and numerous concessions are inserted with regard to parking, especially in the historic center of Catania.

Mobility in Catania during Christmas

The mayor of Catania Salvo Pogliese, has ordered some changes regarding mobility in Catania in December. From the 6th of December to the 6th of January, the half-day service will be suspended at the blue-striped car parks.

In order to increase the rotation of the blue stalls, the payment of the long-term ticket is also suspended in the areas with a greater commercial vocation.

In the short-term parking lots in the historic center, you can use the integrated Fce-Amts ticket for free use of the parking lots.
