Best time to visit Genoa

The spring and summer seasons (May to August) are the most popular time to visit Genoa. During May and August, you can enjoy various festivals, such as the Focaccia Festival and the feast day of St. John. You can enjoy more decent weather in October (mid-autumn), as well as the Pesto e Dintorni Festival at the Palazzo Ducale. These periods are peak season, however, bringing the most tourists to Genoa, meaning less availability, longer queues and high hotel costs. The low season falls in the winter (November through January), when the rain volumes increase in Genoa. The weather might be cool and bleak, but you’ll get more availability, cheaper hotel rates and the pleasure of easier access to the attractions of the city.
