The Erice International Street Food Festival brings a world of flavors to western Sicily, taking place in Erice Casa Santa, at Piazza Sandro Pertini (formerly Piazza Cesarò), from November 13th to 16th, with free admission and opening hours from 12 p.m. to midnight. Organized by Confartigianato with the support of the Municipality of Erice, the event is one of Italy’s most popular traveling food festivals, drawing thousands of visitors each year and enriching the experience of tourism in Trapani with a vibrant celebration of international cuisine.
For four days, the square will turn into a lively open-air food village, offering authentic dishes from all over the world: Abruzzo-style skewers, grilled meats, Tunisian kebab, Angus burgers, porchetta, Neapolitan pizzas (including the fried version served with Nutella), pasta classics like carbonara, and gourmet fries with flavorful sauces. Visitors can also enjoy craft beers, cocktails, and gluten-free options, ensuring a taste experience for everyone.
After the success of previous editions — including last year’s stop in Trapani — this year’s event in Erice confirms the town’s role as a key destination for food lovers. Those planning a weekend getaway can find plenty of options for places to stay in Trapani, perfect for exploring the nearby coast, medieval villages, and scenic landscapes.
