Quartu is getting ready for Christmas: the "Christmas Village" is ready to open on Viale Colombo. This is the fourth edition of "Christmas Is Coming," promoted by the Centro commerciale naturale. The initiative, organized with the Municipality of Quartu, the Region, and the Fondazione di Sardegna, will kick off Friday, November 28th (Black Friday) and continue until December 24th.
Three key locations: Piazza Santa Maria, Piazza del Mare (between Viale Colombo and Via Nenni) with a children's area, and the Christmas Village (Viale Colombo 45). At the heart of the project is the Artistic Crafts Market, which will host at least 15 stands dedicated exclusively to the sale of handmade works. The "Note di Vino" format, in collaboration with the FIS (Italian Sommelier Foundation), is also returning: a food and wine experience pairing a wine with a dish prepared by a Sardinian chef, with tastings at discounted prices. Events include a treasure hunt to educate children about the importance of respecting nature, hip hop and swing music, and sports entertainment.
Charity will also be given ample space, with two auctions for Sardegna Palestina and Asgop (the Sardinian Association of Pediatric Oncology Parents). The launch of the Christmas Village on November 28th is no coincidence: it coincides with Black Friday.
"The message," explains Luca Stocchino, president of the CCN La Via del Mare, "we want to send is clear: there's nothing more 'Prime' than a local purchase. A true 'Prime purchase' is one that allows you to take a stroll, enjoy your city, and do good for local businesses."
