Program Details

Italia Nomad Fest in Palermo is a multi-day event that brings together digital nomads, local communities, entrepreneurs, and creatives to explore new ways of living, collaborating, and building meaningful connections across Italy.

Volunteers are an essential part of the festival team and support the smooth running of talks, workshops, networking events, and social activities. Before the festival starts, volunteers receive clear guidance about their roles and daily schedule. During the event, you’ll collaborate closely with the organizing team, gain behind-the-scenes experience, and be part of an international, dynamic environment focused on innovation, culture, and community.

We'll provide a free shuttle for guests and volunteers from the accommodation to the event (approximately 7 km).
