Markets and crafts in Catania
Shopping in central Catania ranges from Via Etnea's storefronts to two distinct historic markets: La Pescheria near the cathedral and Fera o Luni around Piazza Carlo Alberto.
The markets offer a contrast between fish and food trading close to Piazza del Duomo and a broader market area farther along the central streets. Sicilian puppets and carved wooden objects give craft shoppers something more specific to seek than a generic souvenir.
What to look for
La Pescheria occupies streets and squares close to the cathedral.
Fera o Luni is associated with Piazza Carlo Alberto.
Sicilian pupi are traditional puppets with elaborate costumes.
Useful to know
Visit La Pescheria and Fera o Luni as separate market stops; they are not the same market.
Check current market days and hours before making either the focus of a trip.
