Nelson Italian Festival 2024

Experience Italy in the streets of Nelson! Savour Italian cuisine and enjoy Iive music, cooking demos, and family-friendly activities at the Nelson Italian Festival 2024.

Imagine strolling through the streets, basking in the melodies of Italian folk songs and opera, the air filled with the aroma of freshly-made gnocchi, original Neapolitan pizzas, and so much more... And it's not just about the food - though we promise, your taste buds will thank you. We're also featuring an array of live entertainment, and for those looking to sharpen their culinary skills, we'll have cooking demonstrations with expert tips on crafting the perfect Italian dish.

The event is family-friendly and free (donations are welcome).
