Castelbuono – DiVino Festival
DiVino Festival 2026: one of Sicily’s most iconic wine events returns to Castelbuono, in the heart of the Madonie Mountains
June 19-21, 2026 DiVino Festival returns to transform Castelbuono into the beating heart of Sicilian food and wine with a special edition celebrating 20 years of the event.
Created in the evocative setting of the Madonie Park, the festival has established itself over the years as one of the most recognizable events on the Italian wine scene, thanks to a format that combines wine, haute cuisine, culture, music and entertainment. Also for 2026, the program is full of masterclasses, guided tastings, meetings with producers, concerts and cultural events spread throughout the historic center of the village.
Wine takes center stage between tastings and storytelling
The heart of the event will be the Salone del DiVino . The space is dedicated to tastings and direct meetings with wineries and producers from Sicily and other important Italian wine-growing areas.
Alongside the tasting counters, the festival will offer thematic masterclasses dedicated to the great Italian and international wine territories, with in-depth discussions led by journalists, experts and industry professionals.
Among the most anticipated events are tastings dedicated to great aromatics from Piedmont, Vermentini from Maremma and wines from Etna, as well as meetings of the “Generation Next” format, dedicated to young emerging producers.
Concerts, performances and guests from the Italian cultural scene
DiVino Festival also confirms its transversal soul, capable of interweaving the world of wine with music, entertainment and literature.
The 2026 edition will host concerts, talks and meetings with protagonists of the Italian cultural scene, transforming the squares of Castelbuono into a large open-air stage. Announced guests include Morgan, Marino Bartoletti, Michele Serra and Andrea Amadei.
Madonie territory at the center of the experience
One of the distinctive elements of the festival remains the strong link with the territory. Castelbuono, with its historical, gastronomic and landscape heritage, becomes an integral part of the experience, offering visitors an immersive journey through flavors, culture and Sicilian identity.
Among historic cloisters, medieval squares and glimpses of the Madonie Mountains, DiVino Festival thus continues to tell the story of wine as a cultural and territorial experience, capable of uniting conviviality, tourism and the enhancement of local excellence.
