Introducing Ricci, the Sicilian weekender curated by Gilles Peterson. Taking place 5-8th September, Ricci Weekender will bring you the best in music, wine and food. Situated on the east coast of Catania (Sicily) you’ll be welcomed with Plaja beach, beaming sun and the glorious volcano Etna.
Paired with the incredible backdrop and music, Ricci will also bring you food curated by Ed Wilson, owner of Brawn Restaurant (London). Ricci will also be hosting the weekender across Worldwide FM (www.worldwidefm.net)

This year Ricci will travel through four superb locations: the opening concert will be held on Thursday 5 September in Palazzo Platamone in Catania. Friday, starting from the afternoon, we will transfer on Mt. Etna at Castiglione di Sicilia with its vines and exceptional architecture of the Cantine Pietradolce Vigneti in Solicchiata, Etna wineries. Saturday night the appointment is at Mercati Generali and its international clubbing scene. Grand finale on Sunday at sunset in the botanical park of Radicepura Garden Festival in Giarre.

During the Ricci events it will be possible to taste some of the most remarkable Sicilian wines together with the street food dishes by chef Ed Wilson at Cantine Pietradolce , Can Cisa – Bar Brutal at Mercati Generali and Belles Hot Chicken at Radicepura
