After the great success of the first edition, the event dedicated to the world’s most famous magician is back!
The Enchanted Village in Montepagano is renewed to once again bring magic to life. Children will once again be the protagonists, immersing themselves in secret spells, preparing colorful magic potions and enjoying interactive themed shows in a village that will become truly enchanted.
The natural stage for this extraordinary initiative will be the beautiful village of Montepagano, which for the occasion will be transformed into the perfect scenic setting to make the experience even more atmospheric.
Compared to last year, you will have an extra day to dream, cross the famous track, meet the masters of the famous school and really become great little wizards. The alleys and squares will be transformed into a mysterious territory, populated by magical creatures that will fascinate and amaze. Charming, charismatic and somewhat scary witches will make their way through the streets.
You can participate in Magic School, the Magic Tour, visit the Dark Lord’s Sanctuary, ride the Magic Unicorn, go to Grimmauld Place 12, don the Invisibility Cloak, access free recreational activities in the plaza and participate in the Cosplay Contest to make your Halloween truly unique.
