Infiorata di Noto (Flower Festival of Noto) is a breathtaking art and flower festival held each May in the Baroque town of Noto, Sicily. Along Via Nicolaci, local artists create intricate floral mosaics using thousands of petals to form stunning designs inspired by an annual theme—ranging from mythology to contemporary art. The event transforms the street into a vibrant, perfumed carpet of color, drawing visitors from around the world. Accompanied by parades, music, and cultural exhibitions, the Infiorata di Noto beautifully blends artistry, nature, and Sicilian tradition, celebrating the island’s creativity in full bloom.
