Festival di Morgana: all the magic of the Sicilian puppets

The opera dei pupi is a real magic. How else could we define the great mastery of puppeteers who, with their ancient ability, narrate exciting stories of love and duel? And this magic will be the heart of the Festival di Morgana 2019, which will take place at the Museo internazionale delle marionette Antonio Pasqualino (a puppet museum) from November 6^th to 10^th.

Pupi (puppets) and pupari (puppeteers)

As every year, also in 2019 the Festival di Morgana will be an international event that will involve puppet schools and puppets from all over the world. So, in addition to admire the best master puppeteers, you can also enjoy a moment of cultural exchange.

How to get

First of all, you have to book a seat on one of the ferries to Sicily that will take you to Palermo. The Museo internazionale delle marionette Antonio Pasqualino is located in Piazza Antonio Pasqualino, very close to the port.
