I’m also intrigued by The Presepe (nativity Scene) by Emanuele Luzzati, set in Piazza Carlo Felice up to the 13thof January : a colourful combination of themes and sacred figures from the Christmas story and fairy tale characters.
And then the Ice Route, along which many ice sculptors will create shapes and profiles inspired by the symbols of Turin: The Turin Coat of Arms in Piazza Castello on the 5thof December, the Mole Antonelliana in Piazza Emanuele Filiberto on the 12thof December , up to two large Father Christmas sculptures realized by the Chinese Artists from the twin town of Harbin on the 29th and 30th of December in Piazza Carlo Alberto.
For more traditional Christmas atmospheres, Piazza Castello will host the Cirque Carillon show, a lively merry-go-round played by Cirko Vertigo whose artists will amaze and thrill spectators with their acrobatic performances. Shows will go on stage every Saturday and on Christmas Eve, Boxing Day and Epiphany and each one will have a different theme – clowns, angels, fairies, aviators, Christmas, burlesque, dragons and, finally, a mix of all seven previous shows.
