While Sicily is generally known as a destination to soak up some rays in summer, it can also be a fascinating place to visit in the low season in Italy, with harvests and plenty of October festivals to be enjoyed.
Typical products from Sicily include chestnuts, mushrooms, honey, apples, pistacchios, oil, wine and carob, which invade the island in this autumn harvest period.

If you’re looking for accommodation in Sicily where you enjoy some of these Sicilian festivals, the agricultural town of Zafferana Etnea, on the slopes of Mount Etna, celebrates the Ottobrata Zafferanese – a show of typical products every Sunday from October 5 to 26 which includes tastings, music, exhibitions and cultural excursions.

Buses run between Catania and Zafferana and accommodation can be found at hotels, bed and breakfasts or agriturismi.
For more information, go to the town’s website.
