The sixteenth edition of the Trinitapoli Violet Artichoke Festival took place from November 28 to 30, 2025, on Viale Vittorio Veneto. Three days of flavors, culture, and music dedicated to the violet artichoke, featuring food stalls, street food, conferences, street performers, and concerts that drew large crowds. The event was organized by the Immacolata Parish of the Capuchin Friars Minor with the Municipality of Trinitapoli and the patronage of the BAT Province.

Sixteenth edition: November 28-30, 2025

The 16th Trinitapoli Violet Artichoke Festival enlivened Viale Vittorio Veneto from November 28 to 30, 2025, with a rich program of tastings, culture, and entertainment. The inauguration was attended by several authorities, including Mayor Francesco di Feo and the President of the BAT Province, Bernardo Lodispoto.

The program alternated between conferences dedicated to credit, legality, and rural and tourism development, art exhibitions, workshops on artichoke cultivation, street performers, magic shows, marching bands, and evening concerts.
