San Diego is one of the great California cities with amazing cultural diversity. One of the most fun (and food) loving cultures in the city are the Sicilians. They provide what we love about San Diego most of all–good times in the many street festivals and fairs that are free. The annual Sicilian Festival held each year in San Diego’s Little Italy. Close to 20 years young, the event attracts thousands each May to the neighborhood near downtown and the San Diego harbor. Music,  culture and cuisine of Sicily come to the streets of San Diego’s Little Italy in the 17th Annual Sicilian Festival celebration on India Street.  In addition to the Sicilian Festival, you’ll find many Hispanic events, Irish, world cultures, Italian, and more.

When you go, check out affordable accommodations  at the Hampton Inn.
