Folk festivals are a highlight of summer, and this weekend, the 20th Folklore Festival of the city of Vita offers listeners and folk artists from around the world an opportunity to unite through music and dance. Sicilian groups like the one pictured, Gruppo Folk Soluntum, host groups from Georgia, Greece, New Zealand, Taiwan, and Honduras.
These festivals are do spirited and colorful. I remember being in Trapani for one during Holy Week and it was truly memorable 🌿🌿🌿
They are truly memorable and give travelers a locally-seasoned experience in Sicily, which is why I highlight them on the blog and during our trips!
