A period opens in which there will be many initiatives for young and old until the Epiphany
It will be a period full of events, in particular with lots of music, that of San Piero a Sieve that will animate the period from 8 December to Epiphany, to bring the magic of the Christmas festivities to San Piero and visitors. It is the one promoted by the local Pro Loco, in which, in addition to the traditional monthly appointments of Mercanzie in Piazza, which for the occasion will become ‘Mercanzie di Natale’ (Christmas Merchandise), there will be exhibitions, a rich tombola, musical shows and the customary conclusion with the Befana Train.
It will begin on Sunday 8 December at 8 a.m. with an extraordinary edition of Mercanzie di Natale (Christmas Merchandise) in Via Provinciale and the sale of solidarity panettone by the Misericordia di San Piero a Sieve, with the opening of the stand of the Consulta dei genitori delle scuole di San Piero, the sale of Christmas sweets in the square in front of the Oratorio della Compagnia, and the Circolo Insieme's doughnuts.
At 3.00 p.m., Giulivo Natale's Show will delight the little ones in a real festive atmosphere. In the meantime, the exhibition of the old banners of the Palio della Fortezza di San Piero a Sieve will be inaugurated and can be visited at the Oratorio della Compagnia.
At 4.30 p.m., again in the square in front of the Oratory of the Company, a mega Tombola, for which 5 euro cards are already being sold in the shops of San Piero, which will be used to finance the Christmas lights in the village. Up for grabs will be 100 euros for the terno, 300 for the cinquina and 700 for the tombola.
At 6 p.m., the lighting of the Christmas Tree, the Parish Church of San Pietro, and the Company Oratory will mark the start of the Christmas festivities.
Then, for three Saturdays, music will dominate, with three concerts (first and last at the Oratorio della Compagnia, the one preceding Christmas in the Parish), all at 9.30 pm.
- On Saturday 14 December the concert will be that of the Lucio Battisti Tribute Show.
- On 21 December, an evocative performance by the Mulieres Voces choir from Firenzuola will help get into the now imminent Christmas mood.
- Yet another concert to cheer up the period between Christmas and New Year's Eve: Friday 28, with the music of KM 0.
