Note di Notte Festival in Ragusa

Sicily is in full summer bloom with festivals, concerts and other shows taking place in the many squares, open theatres and villas around the island.
One of the most interesting one is the Note di Notte Festival which is now in its fifth edition. This includes eleven concerts taking place in villas, wineries and masserie spread around the Ragusa area.

The event is organised by the association The Entertainer and includes also painting and handicraft exhibitions, tasting of local food and wine.

The festival opened on the 14th of July with Roy Paci, Frank London, Boban Markovic and the B.M. Orkestar in Il Terrone, L’Ebreo e Lo Zingaro. The programme continued with Rita Botto in Stranizza D’Amuri and Oregon.

The main problem for travellers in the area is getting the right information in English regarding where to buy the tickets and how to find the venues. You can go on the Note di Notte website where in the INFO page you will find a list of Box Offices, then the tab LUOGHI has a list of maps to reach the locations involved.
