Three weekends of sagra
From July to late August, three weekends of popular sagre animate the Nicosia historic centre. Organisation changes year to year (Pro Loco, local associations, neighbourhood committees) but the formula is constant: food stalls, popular music, children’s animation, local crafts market.
Target capacity: ~1,300 visitors per weekend.
What to eat
The summer sagre are the best moment to taste Nicosia cooking at popular prices:
- pasta alla nicosiana with meat sauce and ricotta;
- skewers of Nebrodi mutton;
- pizziddati (traditional sweets);
- artisan ice cream;
- 24 Baroni beer on draft.
Average price for a full meal:.
Calendar
The exact 2027 sagre calendar will be published in June 2027 by the Pro Loco of Nicosia. Indicatively:
- First decade of July: pizziddato sagra.
- Last week of July: Nicosian families sagra.
- Mid-August: Ferragosto feast with mixed sagra.
When the Pro Loco publishes the dates, they go out in the seasonal newsletter along with the rest of Nicosia’s calendar: it takes your email address only, and one click at the bottom of any issue unsubscribes you.
