And once you've entered and we’re waiting for the winner to be announced, why not give your Christmas the Italian treatment in a few simple steps...
1. Book a fancy Christmas meal
Whether it’s a family feast or a colleague Chrimbo catch-up, there’s only one name you’ll need this season, and that’s Zizzi. The Christmas set menu is friendly on both the purse and the palate – yep, three delicious courses start at just £26.50! And when starters include the gooey, cheesy, pig in blanket bombe, fiery pork and garlic meatballs and crispy calamari... well, you’ll be spoilt for choice.
For the main event, vegans are well and truly catered for too. We’re talking the aubergine meatless ‘meatball’ and harissa pizza with candied jalapenos and pepper pearls (sounds pretty decadent to us) to name just one. Vegetarian? How does roasted mushroom risotto sound?
And, saving the best until last, we bring you the dessert line-up that dreams are made of! Giant festive profiteroles, creamy tiramisus, baked lemon and blackcurrant cheesecakes... de-licious!
2. Embark on an Italian adventure
Roam around Rome
When epic monuments, picturesque piazzas and the vibrant Vatican City are on the agenda, an incredible Christmas will be had by all in Rome! Jingle your way around the whimsical markets, where magical merry-go-rounds spin, fairy lights drape and mulled wine stalls steam... now if that’s not an idyllic way to spend the festive season, we don’t know what is.
Venture to Venice
They say Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year, so team that with the most romantic city on the planet and you’ve got a December to remember right there. And trust us, they don’t do celebrations by halves in Venice – even the gondolas are decked out with Chrimbo trims. Wander hand in hand between the wooden hut markets, catch a choir in concert and get your skates on at Campo San Polo ice rink. And the quaint little tucked-away bookshops make Christmas shopping a pure delight.
Fly out to Florence
How do they celebrate Christmas in Florence? With illuminations, of course! The annual Festival of Lights is back for another year, and 2024’s theme is ‘Florence Lights Up’. Pretty-as-a-picture projections meet more than 200 twinkling trees and 60km of LED Christmas lights spread across the city, so you’ll be walking in a winter wonderland before Santa’s even dusted off his sleigh – yay!
