Beddi Sapuri: Sicilian street food in Santa Lucia del Mela

Beddi Sapuri – Street Food Tour is a celebration of Sicilian street food that brings Piazza Milite Ignoto in Santa Lucia del Mela—a charming village in the province of Messina overlooking the Peloritani mountains—to life. Organized by MA.PRO Eventi & Servizi with the support of the Sicilian Region and the Municipality of Santa Lucia del Mela, the event blends authentic flavors, local culture, and fun under the motto: "Where every bite tells the story of Sicily."

A village of taste in the heart of the town

For three days, the streets and the main square of the town turn into a culinary trail. Food stalls offer the best of the island's street food: pane cunzato, schiacciate, fritters, waffles, and fried pizza, alongside traditional Sicilian farm-to-table products. Admission is free, and the festivities begin each evening, with the first shows starting at 7:00 PM and musical performances around 8:30 PM.

The three-day program

  • Friday: children's entertainment and mascots, fire show, concert by the band Apnea, and a Caribbean-themed night with a DJ set.
  • Saturday: games and LED light shows, a folk parade, and live music with the band Rainbow.
  • Sunday: "The Huntrix Show," dance performances, and a grand finale concert by the band XXL.

An event for the whole family

Designed to engage locals, families, tourists, and industry professionals, Beddi Sapuri combines gastronomy with a rich entertainment schedule: activities for children, street performances, dancing, and concerts that continue late into the night. The event aims to showcase Sicilian food and wine excellence while promoting the territory of Santa Lucia del Mela and Sicily as a whole, turning food and popular culture into a festive gathering.
