About this experience

The Cous Cous Fest is the principal festival in San Vito Lo Capo, Sicily, held annually in September along the town's main beachfront. It combines an international cous-cous cooking competition with food stalls, live music concerts, and cultural events over ten days. The festival draws chefs from Mediterranean and North African nations, making it a culinary meeting point.

What to expect

  • Watch live cooking demonstrations by international chefs competing for the Golden Cous-Cous award
  • Taste over 30 varieties of cous-cous dishes from stalls lining Via Savoia and the harbour
  • Attend free evening concerts on the main stage, featuring Sicilian folk and world music acts
  • Join the final award ceremony on the last Saturday, with fireworks over the bay
  • Suitable for food travellers and families, with a dedicated children's cooking workshop area
  • The event runs from early to mid-September, with daily opening hours from 10:00 to midnight
