Events in the Cilento range from larger cultural and music festivals to traditional sagre held in small towns and villages. These local celebrations are a special opportunity to try regional dishes and Cilentan specialities that are often otherwise prepared only in private homes or for particular occasions.
Many festivals are rooted in local traditions and organised by residents, associations and entire communities. Alongside food and music, they may include processions, traditional crafts, historic customs and elaborately decorated streets. Each event therefore has its own distinctive atmosphere.
We will use this page to collect dates, recurring events and our personal recommendations for some of the most interesting festivals and sagre in the Cilento.
