The New Year's Eve in Catania is not only an opportunity to celebrate, but also to delight the palate with local specialities. Visit Catania during this holiday means immersing oneself in a culinary tradition rich in authentic flavours and dishes that tell the history and culture of the city.

At a New Year's Eve dinner in Catania, the real star will be the fish fresh. In particular, the most served dish is the salt cod.

This speciality is a tradition that extends from the historical centre, particularly in the Pescheria area in the historic centrewhich in recent years has been filled with truly delicious restaurants, to the picturesque St. Philomena Streetwith its typical taverns and renowned restaurants. These areas, renowned for restaurants, are very close to Piazza Duomo, so making one choose for the New Year's Eve dinner will allow you to attend the concert in the square comfortably after dinner.

For those who want to dine out, the options are just as inviting, whether on the Catania seafront, at Aci Trezza o Aci Castello or on the slopes of Etna. The restaurants offer typical menus of traditional Catania cuisine, always with a preference for fresh fish for the New Year's Eve dinner.
