Destination story
A place with its own rhythm.
Palermo has been shaped by Phoenicians, Arabs, Normans and Spaniards, and its streets show all of them. The UNESCO-listed Arab-Norman monuments, including the Cathedral and the Palatine Chapel, stand near baroque squares, the famous Teatro Massimo and colourful street markets.
For WOFA participants, Palermo is a city of music, colour and passion. Groups can perform in a capital with a great theatrical tradition and discover Sicily’s rich food culture and seaside life.
