The exposition is located within the walls of the ancient amphitheater under the stone arches usually hidden from the visitors’ eyes. There are about four hundred dens that depict the "Adoration of the Magi" scene made with high artistic skill and in compliance with all traditions. The works for the exhibition were submitted by professional artists, craftsmen and amateurs from all over Europe as well as Peru, Africa, Latin America, China and Japan. A variety of fabulous music, lighting and projection effects help to create a unique atmosphere. And each of the exhibits is presented to visitors at its best. Traditionally the Christmas symbol in Verona is a seventy-meter high white star which has been installed every Christmas season in front of the amphitheater since 1984.
