Epiphany village opens in Naples, Italy to Celebrate La Befana

NAPLES, ITALY-JAN. 3: The Epiphany Village officially opened on Thursday, January 3, in Piazza Mercato, located in the heart of Naples, southern Italy. The event, which runs from January 3 to 5, 2025, is part of the annual "Epiphany Festival," a cherished tradition marking the culmination of the Christmas season. Visitors to the village can explore traditional toy and stocking exhibitions, capturing the festive spirit of the occasion. The Epiphany Festival, known locally as La Befana, is celebrated every year on January 6, marking the conclusion of the Twelve Days of Christmas. Deeply rooted in Christian tradition, the festival commemorates the arrival of the Three Wise Men, or Magi, who traveled to Bethlehem guided by the Star to honor the infant Jesus. This date symbolizes the manifestation of Jesus as the Son of God and holds significant religious importance in Italy. In Naples, festivities are particularly vibrant, featuring colorful parades, traditional folk music, and an array of cultural activities. Known for its strong ties to street art and folklore, the city embraces the Epiphany Festival as a key part of its cultural heritage. (Footage by Stringer/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
