Christmas celebrations in amusement parks
Italia in Miniatura, Oltremare 2.0 and the Cattolica Aquarium are ready for the Christmas and New Year festivities with scheduled openings on Sundays in December until 6 January 2026, themed sets and many experiences to enjoy together.
Cattolica Aquarium: Christmas between sea and sustainability
At the Cattolica Aquarium, Christmas is an opportunity to look at the sea up close and with greater awareness. Among more than 3,000 animals of 400 species - Humboldt penguins, Asian otters, caimans, bull sharks, seahorses and octopuses - the four indoor routes (Blue, Yellow, Green and Purple) accompany visitors on a discovery of aquatic ecosystems, reptiles and the tiny world of insects.
For the Christmas period, the route is enriched by themed displays, moments dedicated to feeding together with experts and activities in the 'Plastifiniamola' area, designed to raise awareness of pollution and the responsible use of plastic. The aim is to turn the youngest in particular into true "guardians of the sea", stimulating more sustainable daily behaviour.
Cattolica Aquarium open in December: 6, 7, 8, 14, 21 and then from 26 to 6 January 2026. Opening hours 10 a.m. - 6.30 p.m,
Italia in Miniatura: the Bel Paese in Christmas version
In Rimini, Italia in Miniatura invites visitors to rediscover the joy in the 'little things', with a festively decorated Piazza Italia and the big Christmas tree framing a scaled journey across the entire peninsula. In just one day, more than 300 miniature monuments can be visited and attractions included in the festive ticket such as Venice in a gondola, the Pinocchio trail, the Panoramic Tower, the Esperimenta science area and Cinemagia7D (with surcharge) can be experienced.
For those wishing to learn more, a new digital audio guide is also available, which recounts the curiosities, history and details of the main exhibits. The park thus becomes a large open-air atlas, where the play dimension is intertwined with the educational one, ideal for families and groups.
Italia in Miniatura opens in December: 6, 7, 8, 14, 21 and from 26 December to 6 January 2026. Opening hours 10 a.m. - 5 p.m,
Oltremare 2.0: a Christmas of adventures
In Riccione, Oltremare 2.0 proposes an "adventurous" Christmas in an educational key, with many of the novelties entirely indoors. The Genesis, Planet Theatre, Village and Sapiens routes accompany adults and children on a journey through the evolution of man and the Earth, amidst immersive scenographies and interactive content.
Among the most eagerly awaited experiences for the festivities is Speleos, a new "cave" to explore among stalactites, tunnels and evocative passages that simulate the excitement of the first real caving expedition. There are also encounters with dolphins from Dolphins World, birds of prey from Raptors World, the mascot Ulysses, and the game areas of MegaGame Land dedicated to DinsiemE, as well as the final moment around the fire under a shower of bubbles.
Oltremare opens in December: 6, 7, 8 and from 28 December to 6 January 2026. Opening hours 10 a.m.-5.30 p.m,
Fiabilandia
From 7 December and with a precise schedule during the festive season, Fiabilandia awaits you every day with two special events: the Christmas Fiaby Circus Show, an exciting show of magic, acrobatics and Christmas atmosphere, and the Circus School for children where all the little guests can put themselves to the test with juggling and fun guided by professional artists.
Fiabilandia opens in December: 7, 8, 14, 21, and from 26 December to 6 January 2026. Opening hours 11 a.m.-5 p.m.
