Palermo wins Capital of Culture 2018

Palermo, Sicily has been named the Italian Capital of Culture for 2018 by the Italian Culture Ministry. The award recognises Palermo's historical legacy, cuisine and range of cultural venues. There will be a year long calendar of events to celebrate with initiatives currently under development including promoting an Arab-Norman route connecting Palermo with Cefalù and Monreale (the path was recently granted UNESCO Heritage status) and world-class opera performances for the city’s Teatro Massimo.

Palermo, one of the most beautiful cities in Italy with a truly enviable historical and cultural legacy, was one of the finalists on the shortlist of ten cities: the others were Alghero, Aquileia, Comacchio, Ercolano, Montebelluna, Recanati, Settimo Torinese , Trento, and a joint Elima-Erice bid (including Buseto Palizzolo, Custonaci, Erice, Paceco, San Vito Lo Capo, and Valderice).  Now that the city has achieved this recognition, the Sicilian capital will gain certain economic benefits. For starters, it will receive €1 million, allowing it to carry out investments to promote cultural activities and increase the value of its artistic heritage.

Palermo was also named the Italian Capital of Young People 2017.

Introducing Elba

The island of Elba lies 10km west of the Tuscan coastline in north west Italy and 50km east of the French island of Corsica. Whilst being part of Italy, it has an unique blend of landscapes, architecture and cultures creating one of the most beautiful islands in the Mediterranean.

Elba is the third biggest Italian island after Sicily and Sardinia, but only 224sqkm in area with 150km of coastline with many beautiful, sandy beaches, cliffs and coves bordering a crystalline sea. The countryside is green and fertile, particularly in the west which is overlooked by Monte Capanne (1,019m) and known as the ‘Roof of the Tuscan Archipelago’.
