Florence in June

Hot, crowded and genuinely festive.

By Daan · Last reviewed October 2026

The short answer

June is a reasonable month in Florence — with trade-offs.

June is hot and busy, but it is also when Florence is most itself: Calcio Storico, the historic costumed football match, and the Festa di San Giovanni on 24 June, with fireworks over the Arno, both fall in this month.
