Festival in Castelbuono

Among the main festivals held in Castelbuono are the Infiorata and the Medieval Festival.

An annual event that takes place in the historical centre of the town in the first week of June, the infiorata consists of creating artistic designs using only natural materials such as flowers, leaves and earth. Each edition has its own theme that is then developed through the designs created, which usually represent saints, cartoons and more.

The event ends on Sunday with a parade of the procession and the mastery of the flag-wavers.

The Medieval Festival is an event that takes place during the Christmas period in the historical centre of Castelbuono with the historical re-enactment of the Ventimiglia Historical Procession in the Principality of Castelbuono.
But let’s focus, now, on the heart of the event: the historical procession will be attended by actors and figurants wearing enchanting medieval costumes, to which will be added flag-wavers, soldiers, fuocolieri, court jesters, falconers and finally trumpets. From the historical centre, you will reach the Ventimiglia Castle, where Counts, Countesses, Marquises and Nobles will pay homage to the Princes of the noble and powerful Ventimiglia house.

Don’t miss the chance to participate and experience a different era.
