Genoa’s residents have a flair for the dramatic and nowhere is that easier to see than in their unique traditions and festivals, any of them makes a good centrepiece for a holiday in the city:
Euroflora
Half a million professional florists descend upon the city of Genoa during Euroflora for a gigantic floristry and gardening festive. The streets become filled with flowers and breath-taking natural arrangements as visitors compete to show off their talents. As it only happens every five years, Euroflora is an absolute must for anyone fortunate enough to be visiting during the festivities.
Suq a Genova
A festival of enlightenment that brings world music, thought-provoking lectures and art to the streets of the city, Suq a Genova is run by the Suq a Genova society every June and is beloved by the people of Genova. There are lots of fireworks and celebrations to enjoy, making this the perfect event for families visiting the city.
Circumnavigando
Circumnavigando is a winter festival held in December where clowns and other street performers flood the streets of the city. Circus skills and hijinks take over creating a brilliant alternative Christmas Holiday for families.
