Like most of Sicily, unless you are a fan of really hot
weather, the best time to visit Enna is spring and early autumn. Spring
is particularly lovely and at Easter you can really see the mystic side
to Enna’s history, as there is a grand procession of people in capes
and hoods through the town to the Duomo. July 2nd is the festival of
Maria Santissime della Visitazione, where an effigy of this patron saint
is dragged through the town by farmers wearing sheets, followed by a
firework display. Fans of motor racing might enjoy the Formula 3 races
that take place 9km south of Enna at the Autodromo di Pergusa between
April and October
