57th Cherry Festival in Chiusa Sclafani

The Cherry Festival of Chiusa Sclafani

Chiusa Sclafani, a small village in the province of Palermo nestled among the Sicani Mountains, has always had a strong agricultural vocation.

In the 1970s and 1980s, with the aim of promoting the product and supporting local producers, the municipal administration and local associations decided to organize a festival dedicated to cherries. Over time, the festival has grown into a highly anticipated regional event.

The message of the event
