Festa Medievale di Randazzo (Medieval Festival of Randazzo)

The Medieval Festival of Randazzo is a fascinating journey through time that transports visitors back to fifteenth-century Sicily, when Queen Bianca of Navarre, the last queen of Sicily, resided in this enchanting Etna town. Organized by the Sicularagonensia Cultural Association, the event takes place from July 24-26, 2026, and completely transforms Randazzo's historic center into a grand medieval stage, where history and tradition come alive along ancient streets. Over three days of celebration, visitors can fully immerse themselves in the medieval atmosphere through engaging performances and entertainment: costumed processions, falconers, flag-throwers, jugglers, musicians, and choreographed combat recreate the atmosphere of medieval courts, while markets and historic taverns offer authentic sensory experiences. There's no shortage of pure entertainment with medieval games and extraordinary acrobatic performances that will captivate adults and children alike. For food enthusiasts, the festival offers the opportunity to taste dishes inspired by medieval cuisine in traditional inns set up for the occasion, while history lovers can discover the secrets of medieval lute-making by visiting the House of Medieval Music and Lute-Making. An unforgettable experience that combines culture, entertainment, and gastronomy in the heart of Sicily.
