What is Ferragosto?

A tradition rooted in Italian culture, Ferragosto marks the heart of summer – celebrated at Falkensteiner with passion, food, and festivity.

15 August. Italy holds its breath – then exhales into celebration. Ferragosto is the country's most joyful public holiday, born in ancient Roman times and alive today in long lunches, fireworks over the sea, music that stretches past midnight, and the quiet joy of summer at its fullest.
Falkensteiner was born in South Tyrol, where Italian warmth and Alpine character have always shaped the way hospitality feels. That heritage runs through every Ferragosto celebration across the destinations – and it is yours to enjoy.
