Brolo Artisan Gelato Gala

Artisan gelato takes center stage in Brolo

The Brolo Artisan Gelato Gala is one of the most beloved and long-running summer events in Brolo, a seaside town in the province of Messina, Sicily. For over twenty years, in the heart of summer, Corso Vittorio Emanuele is closed to traffic and transformed into a wide pedestrian area where local master gelato makers set up their artisan gelato stands.

A tradition of taste and quality

Along the main street, visitors can sample dozens of flavors, from great classics to the most creative offerings, the result of research, technique, and passion. The event was created to showcase one of the territory's finest products and has grown over the years to become a benchmark for gelato lovers throughout the Tyrrhenian side of Sicily.

The event is sponsored and supported by the Regional Department of Agriculture of the Sicilian Region, confirming the promotional value it holds for the Municipality of Brolo and the entire Nebrodi area.

More than just tastings

• Entertainment and live music: the highlight evening is accompanied by a concert featuring a prominent guest from the Italian music scene.
• Show cooking and master gelato makers: live demonstrations and signature creations.
• Conferences and exhibitions: moments of in-depth exploration dedicated to the culture of gelato, blending tradition, taste, and well-being.

Strolling through the stands on the Corso, gelato in hand, is the best way to experience the summer atmosphere of Brolo, amidst the scent of the sea and the warmth of Sicilian hospitality.

Brolo, a pearl of the Tyrrhenian coast

Dominated by the evocative tower of its medieval castle, Brolo is one of the most popular seaside destinations on the Tyrrhenian side of Messina. The Gelato Gala is part of a rich calendar of summer events that enlivens the town from June until autumn, making it an ideal stop for those seeking sea, culture, and good food.
