Highlights of the Holiday Resort Plan de Corones 2010
Christmas Market in Bruneck
There is a very special pre-Christmas atmosphere, when the Graben, a lovely pedestrian area, and the Rathausplatz is shrouded in darkness and the small lane between the little stalls of the Bruneck Christmas market is illuminated by a myriad of lights, when the air is filled with the scent of freshly baked biscuits and you hear some very soft and idyllic music somewhere in the background while skilled local craftsmen are producing a variety of splendid objects such as exceptionally beautiful crèche figures in Father Christmas’ Workshop. The Christmas market in Bruneck has always been meant to be a small, traditional and pleasant event and as such it has established itself and now occupies a very special place together with the Christmas markets of Bozen, Meran and Brixen.

International Snow Sculpture Festival
Cold art - sculptures made of snow. Artists from all over the world are coming together to transform inconspicuous 3 x 3 x 3 m large snow cubes into highly imaginative works of art which develop their very own play of colour in the light of the evening illumination. Barbed wire, saws and shovels are the artists’ only tools. Within three days the cubes have to be chiselled and shaped. And you, dear audience, play a really essential role: your votes decide which of the ten teams of artists has created the most beautiful of all these marvellous yet unfortunately ephemeral works of art. The snow sculpture festival will stop off in S. Vigilio di Marebbe.

"Locknfescht"
After one year’s pause it will be staged again, this unique, unparalleled event on Kronplatz – the “Locknfescht”. This soaking wet spectacle shall mark the end of the skiing season with participants jumping into the cold water. It all started over a decade ago when a group of locals tried to cross the small pond, which forms from the melted snow in the Seewiese on Kronplatz every spring. Over the past twelve years the big puddle has grown bigger and bigger since it has been fed with additional amounts of water. The pond and the event have become famous far beyond the borders of South Tyrol. The Locknfescht is a most crazy event indeed. Cars without wheels, beds, bath tubs, sky rockets, desks, deckchairs and parasols, compositions of tyres, semi-nudes or fully uniformed daredevils as well as an abundance of rideable, slideable or rollable vehicles have all come down the slope and tried to make their way over the pond. It goes without saying that the event is always spiced up by hip music and plenty to eat and drink!
