Many of the island's festivals have been ongoing for centuries and reveal a lot about the Sardinian people and their history. The magnificent costumes and jewellery that the women wear highlight the handicrafts of the island.
Festivals in Sardinia often have a religious theme but there are a plethora of others that celebrate annual events including the fish festival in July where you can sample fried fish or the International Jazz festival in August, one of the most important festivals in Sardinia. Annual events will be affected by Covid and some will not take place, we have compiled a list of the main festivals that usually take place so if you are lucky enough to be in Sardinia when one is on, you have no excuse to miss it!
