ABOUT
Nomadic Sicily is a two-day, community-focused festival taking place April 17–18, 2026, in historic Siracusa, Sicily.
For the 2nd edition of our festival, we’re once again bringing together an international community of nomads, creatives, and passionate entrepreneurs. The festival offers people living in—or simply in love with—Sicily the chance to discover fresh ideas and form genuine connections. This year, alongside our 15+ speakers, we’ll explore new social-impact projects, creative initiatives, and bold ventures emerging from Sicily and beyond.
