Lake Como Light Cruise

The absolute novelty of summer 2021 are the cruises of Navigazione Lago di Como – the first on August 20 in the upper lake, then on September 3 on the Lecco branch and on September 24 on the Como branch. The itineraries are as follows:

20 August – upper lake
departure from Bellagio at 9 pm, then stop in Menaggio, Varenna and Domaso and return. 3 September – Lecco branch
departure from Bellagio at 9.00 pm, then stop in Varenna and Lecco and return. 24 September – Como branch
departure from Como at 8.45 pm, then stop in Tremezzo and return.

A novelty made possible by the collaboration between Navigazione Laghi, the Chamber of Commerce of Como and Lecco, the hoteliers' trade associations and the Municipalities that with the Como Turistica Consortium, thanks to the important sponsorship of the Amici di Como association, have built and implement this unique project since 2018. In recent weeks, over 80 new lights have been installed to make the illuminated locations even more suggestive.

Thanks to the unique calendar of events built with the Como and Lecco infopoints, the PIC staff, the integrated culture plan which brings together over 80 subjects committed to managing and organizing events in the very rich artistic and cultural heritage of the two provinces, it is finally possible to discover all the events that accompany the Larian summer until the end of September. The edition is weekly, on the occasion of the cruises an extraordinary edition will be promoted and distributed that offers 4 weeks of events with over 500 appointments.

Cruises and events are promoted by a coordinated campaign between the Consortium Como Turistica, Chamber of Commerce, Lariofiere (which manages the destination site lakecomo.is), and by all those involved in the tourism and cultural promotion of the territory.

In support of the promotion campaign is the regional tourism department took the field on direct input from the commissioner Lara Magoni. Through the Explora structure, the marketing campaign for the restart of the tourist season linked to cruises and illuminated villages will be further amplified.

The single calendar

Extraordinary edition no longer only in a weekly edition as done so far but in a monthly edition distributed to hotels, non-catering facilities and tourists through the 15 online infopoints that have joined the initiative between Como and Lecco. In the extraordinary edition the PC staff has collected with the Infopoints something like more than 500 (five hundred) appointments from 12 August to the end of September to tell what this second part of summer will be like in Como and Lecco with events, exhibitions and visits to museums and historic homes. An enormous effort that allows tourists to know in detail every appointment scheduled in all 238 municipalities between Como and Lecco in the double Italian and English edition. The single calendar is an action of the PIC that has already involved the province of Lecco.
