Overview
From 7 to 15 March 2026, Agrigento lights up with colours, music and dancing with the 78th edition of the Almond Blossom Festival. The city's most iconic and emblematic event celebrates the beauty of spring and the universal values of peace and brotherhood among peoples. Originally a festival celebrating the reawakening of nature, today Mandorlo in Fiore is a major international folklore festival, in which artistic groups from all over the world parade through the streets of the city and the picturesque Valley of the Temples, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Music, traditional costumes, folk dances, concerts, food tastings and cultural re-enactments intertwine in a rich programme that pays tribute to Sicily's roots and the value of cultural exchange. The early announcement of the dates provides an important opportunity for tourists and industry operators to plan packages and offers that include Agrigento among the must-see spring destinations for 2026. The Almond Blossom Festival is much more than a folklore event: it is a cultural bridge between peoples, an occasion for collective celebration and awareness that enchants visitors, families and travellers from all over the world every year.
