When will the grape festival take place in Capoliveri in 2026?

The Festa dell'Uva of Capoliveri will take place from Friday 9 to Sunday 11 October 2026, , on the ’island of Elba. It will begin on Friday at 3. 10 a.m. and end on Sunday at 21 h.

The festival takes place in the historic centre and showcases the four districts of Capoliveri — Baluardo, Fortezza, Fosso and Torre — which compete with their decorations and entertainment. So it's not just a wine tasting: expect a village-fair atmosphere too, with music, local traditions and entertainment in the streets. On Sunday, the winning district must be announced at 18 h.

If you plan to go, allow several hours for the village rather than just stopping by for a glass: the entertainment spans three days and the crowds can be significant. To organise your stay, also check the ferry times to the island and book your accommodation in advance if you're staying overnight; I can't give you a reliable price without knowing your departure point or your exact dates.
