Festival Locations
The heart of the event unfolds along Corso Umberto, in the stretch between Piazza Piave (the town entrance when coming from Catania) and Piazza Spedalieri (in the town center).
The two squares and the entire Corso Umberto are full of stalls, bars, restaurants, gelaterie, and all kinds of shops.
Parking and Shuttles
TWO free municipal parking areas are set up in the outskirts of the town. The municipality of Bronte ADVISES AGAINST arriving via the main road (Ss 284) for those coming from Catania, as it is prone to traffic jams.
Here are the parking areas and the municipality's suggestions for reaching them:
- Artisan Zone (MAP)
- With shuttle bus service to the center (Saturday and Sunday only)
- Very large, therefore also suitable for CAMPERS
- It is recommended to arrive from RANDAZZO to avoid the long car queues on the road coming from Catania (CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE ROUTE RECOMMENDED BY THE MUNICIPALITY)
- Piazza Padre V. Saitta (MAP)
- No shuttles (about a 15-minute walk)
- It is recommended to pass through SCHETTINO to avoid the long car queues on the road coming from Catania (CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE ROUTE RECOMMENDED BY THE MUNICIPALITY)
Full Program
The 6 days will be full of music, shows, parades, award ceremonies, and other activities, which you can find in the PDF program (we will add the link here once it becomes available)
Cost / Entrance Ticket
There is NO entrance ticket, as the Sagra takes place freely along the town streets.
You only pay for what you consume, paying directly at the stalls, bars, restaurants, etc., where you decide to eat.
Some stalls also offer free samples, but obviously in limited quantities.
Buses / Coaches / Trains from Catania, Messina, Palermo, Airport, etc.
I'm sorry, but we do not provide this type of information.
We recommend checking the transport agencies' websites directly.
Additionally, there are many private agencies that organize coach tours, which can be found by searching on Google or social media.
