Visitors to Trieste’s public gardens will have additional time to use many of the city’s illuminated green spaces through the end of October, the municipal government said.
The city will keep the summer opening schedule in place at illuminated public gardens until Oct. 31. The winter schedule will take effect on Nov. 1, allowing the city to extend access during the longer daylight hours of early autumn.
Two gardens without lighting will instead adopt earlier evening closing times in October, based on sunset. Campagna Prandi will close at 5:30 p.m., while Vicolo dell’Edera will close at 6 p.m.
The opening hours through Oct. 31 are:
- Santa Maria Maddalena: 8:15 a.m. to 7:45 p.m.
- Basevi: 6:15 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.

The extension is intended to give residents and visitors continued access to the city’s green spaces during October, before the shorter winter schedule begins in November.
