Pompei will host Christmas markets in Piazza Bartolo Longo, in the space in front of the Municipio, from 5 to 23 December.

The initiative was approved by the Tortora administration, with the stated aim of providing practical support to local commerce, craftsmanship and the neighbourhood economy during the holiday season.

According to the report by Metropolis Web, the municipal plan presents the markets as an opportunity to support shopkeepers and artisans while creating occasions for meeting and community gathering in the central square.

The selection of exhibitors is expected to follow procedures based on clear rules, transparency and equal opportunity.

What is confirmed so far:

  • Location: Piazza Bartolo Longo, in front of the Municipio
  • Dates: 5–23 December
  • Promoter: the municipal administration led by the Tortora council
  • Purpose: support for local traders and artisans, and community gathering

Operational details still unavailable include the number of stalls, opening hours, the detailed programme of related events, and the application process and deadlines for prospective exhibitors. The full text of the municipal resolution was not included in the material acquired.

Local traders and residents interested in taking part should therefore wait for the Municipality of Pompei to publish the operating terms and application deadlines.
