La Notte Gialla – Yellow Melon Festival

The 2025 edition of La Notte Gialla – Yellow Melon Festival was held in Gibellina on August 30 and 31, 2025. The food and wine village opened its stalls around 6:30 PM, offering yellow melon-based tastings – fresh, gelato, jams, and savory dishes – alongside Palermo-style street food, Trapani-style busiate, grilled meats, wines, and craft beers. The "Mercato dell'Ingegno" was also set up in the city streets, showcasing creations by local artisans.

In the evening, from 10:30 PM, the stage was set for live concerts: among the announced headliners for the two evenings were Evidenz and the grand finale with Lello Analfino and the Orkestar Tinturia. During the day, educational workshops for children, artistic performances, and guided tours of the museum-city's artistic heritage took place. The event, free to enter and organized by the Pro Loco of Gibellina, reaffirmed the bond between the yellow melon, culture, and the identity of the Belice Valley.
