Benvenuti! Welcome to the Galbani® Italian Heritage Festival of Buffalo, New York. Celebrating 50 years!

Our festival on Hertel Avenue will take place from July 25-27, 2025, celebrating 50 Years in the heart of North Buffalo, bringing Italy’s sights, sounds, and aromas for three glorious days. Dozens of vendors will offer all the traditional Italian and Italian-American specialties we have all grown to love. The festival will be open from 11:00 am – 9:30 pm Friday and Saturday and 11:00 am- 7:00 pm on Sunday.

Our festival is a celebration for all ages, with the best entertainment featuring locally and nationally known Italian-American entertainers. From our traditional Grape Stomping, Italian Mass, St. Anthony’s Procession, Sicilian Puppet Shows, crafts for the Bambini, and Italian photo ops, there’s something for every member of the family to enjoy. Again, we welcome the Italian medical students back as our special guests this year.
