Welcome
The new Festa del Cactus website leads us toward the 21st edition: more space, new exhibitors, artists, organizations, and fresh ideas—but above all, the same desire to come together around a passion that knows no bounds. Cacti, carnivorous plants, tropical plants, or aquatic plants—as long as they photosynthesize. For three days, once again, the Festival becomes a home away from home.
