On the night of the 18th December 2009 the interior of the Altes Wettbüro club was transformed into a life-size model of a ceppo – the Italian version of a nativity play. Pine trees were erected in the middle of the club and the floor covered with treated wood shavings. Videos of rural Italian winter settings were projected to each of the walls. The stage was transformed into manger scene complete with colored pennants, stars hung from the ceiling and resident DJ’s The Moroders dressed up as the Three Wise Men. But this is just the beginning of the story…

Video projection of a ceppo, the Italian version of a nativity play, on all walls of the club.

Spectacular Sigfried and Roy magic show featuring artist group Zombocombo.

Ludicrous Christmas presents of a dubious origin from the urn of fate – a modified cement mixer.

La Befana – a kindly old witch – is giving out freshly baked panettone and chocolate meringue to hungry revellers.

Or why not take part in funny catch-the- sausage-game catering for all meat-loving-palates.

And there was holy music and traditional dancing of course.
