Events on Lake Garda

Lake Garda in December

December is Christmas-market month: Bardolino on the lakefront, the fortified old towns of Peschiera and Lazise, Riva del Garda at the foot of the mountains. Cold but often sunny, with the thermal baths as an evening refuge.

What's on. Christmas markets in nearly every town, Christmas concerts, New Year on the lake.
