The evening atmosphere on Mount Etna

The choice of evening hours, from late afternoon until midnight, is perfectly suited to the Sicilian summer climate: sun and sea by day, and a stroll through the town stalls by night. Trecastagni, overlooking the southeastern slopes of Mount Etna, offers a cool and pleasant climate on summer nights, perfect for enjoying the historic center outdoors.

Part of the Trecastagni summer

The Summer Craft Fair is part of the broader program of events that animate Trecastagni in Summer, featuring shows, music, food and wine trails, and cultural initiatives that accompany residents and visitors throughout the season. Alongside the famous Feast of Saint Alfio and the autumn Chestnut Festival, the fair contributes to the identity of a town deeply rooted in its popular and artisanal traditions.
