Spring (April – June)
Mild weather and green countryside: the best time for walking and touring the valley. Easter and spring bank holidays get busy.
The seasons
The climate is Mediterranean, but Alberobello sits on a plateau: evenings are cooler than on the coast.
Summer (July – August)
Hot and busy, but the sea is half an hour away. See the trulli early in the morning or in the evening, when it's cooler and quieter.
Autumn (September – November)
September still feels like summer, with warm sea. Then comes the grape harvest and, from late October, olive picking and new oil.
Winter (December – March)
Cool and quiet, with few tourists. In December the town lights up for the holidays and gets busy again, especially at weekends.
The year's events
Exact dates change every year: the town council publishes the programme.
Feast of the Holy Physicians, late September
The patron saints' feast of Cosmas and Damian, around 27 September: processions, lights, stalls and fireworks. Pilgrims come from all over Apulia, so the town is packed.
Christmas among the trulli, December – Epiphany
From late November to Epiphany there are lights, markets and events all over town. Weekend evenings are the busiest.
Living nativity, Aia Piccola
Around Christmas and Epiphany the Aia Piccola quarter becomes a living nativity scene among the trulli. A tradition going back more than fifty years.
