Pozza di Fassa celebrates the traditional Krampus Parade

On 4 December, Pozza di Fassa will host a fascinating and, for the slightly fearful, slightly spooky event: the traditional Krampus parade. The masked devils, with their incredibly realistic masks, will bring the streets to life, creating an atmosphere of folklore and tradition. You will be surrounded by the sounds of cowbells and festive voices as the procession winds its way from the Church of San Nicolò to Piaza de Comun.

To warm you up, you can enjoy a delicious hot tea or mulled wine, ideal to face the winter cold. In this journey through the wonders of Moena and Pozza di Fassa, every corner tells a story, every flavour awakens a memory. Whether it is the smell of mulled wine or the sound of the Krampus' cowbells, every detail contributes to creating a mosaic of emotions and fun.
