📅 Every year on 23 April

📅 Every year on the third Sunday of May
Sambuca's biggest night of the year: on the third Sunday of May, a statue carved by Antonello Gagini is carried through the old town until nearly dawn, greeted with folk chants at eleven decorated stops.
📅 Every May, during the patron saint celebrations
Sambuca's pastry shops set up tasting stalls in Piazza della Vittoria for the town's signature sweet — milk cream, chocolate and candied fruit under a smooth glaze, in a shape that explains the name at first glance.
📅 First edition: 8–9 August 2026
Two evenings of wine and music in the Saracen alleys: more than twenty Belìce Valley wineries pour at the tasting stands, local produce fills the stalls, and eight drummers close the night in Piazza Baldi Centellis.
