If you've ever felt like waiting a whole year for an Italian festival in Palm Beach County is just too long, you're not alone. Sure, the Feast of Little Italy in Jupiter is a staple every November, but what about the rest of the year? The craving for authentic Italian food, live music, and cultural celebrations doesn’t just disappear.
Good news, Wellington is stepping up. This March, you won’t have to wait until fall to indulge in all things Italian. The first-ever Galbani Festa Italiana of Wellington is happening March 29-30 at the Wellington Amphitheater, bringing you a full weekend of Italian flavors, music, and tradition.
What to Expect
If you've ever left an Italian festival thinking, I wish I could eat like this all the time, you're in for a treat. Nearly 20 food vendors will be serving up Italian classics like sausage and peppers, pasta, pizza, Italian ice, zeppoles, and more. Plus, celebrity chef Marco Sciortino and local favorite Anthony Acampa will take the stage at La Cucina Galbani Cooking Stage, showing you how to create mouth-watering dishes at home.
And what’s Italian food without the perfect drink? Head to the Aperol Spritz Piazza or Moretti Beer Garden to sip on Italy’s favorite beverages while soaking in the festival atmosphere.
Family-Friendly & Affordable
Ever skipped an event because of high ticket prices? That won’t be an issue here. Thanks to sponsorships, admission is just $5, and kids 5 and under get in free. There’s even a family picnic area with tables and chairs, so you can relax and enjoy the music while you eat.
Speaking of music, the lineup includes Blonde Ambition (a Madonna tribute), a Rat Pack tribute, and performances by Tony Quaranti, Angelo Venuto, Philippe Harari, Anthony Nunziata, and Elio Scaccio. So whether you're into old-school crooners or high-energy pop hits, there's something for you.
Why Wellington?
You might be wondering—why add a second Italian festival now? The answer is simple: the demand is there. When local businessman Tom Cerrito and village officials wanted a family-style event for the growing community, Via Productions, the same team behind the Jupiter festival, was the obvious choice.
The event organizers have a strong track record of hosting family-focused celebrations, making them a natural fit for Wellington’s expanding community. Ultimately, Wellington saw the value in bringing them on board to create something special for residents.
