An Iconic Local Event<\/span><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n

In 1986, the first Norton Street Italian Festa was organised by the Capuchin Priests at St Fiacres Church in Leichhardt who wanted to replicate the religious festivals of Italy. Norton Street in Leichhardt has long been the emotional and physical centre of the Italian community in Sydney and is known as \u2018Little Italy\u2019. It was the first stop for many, if not most, of the Italians who disembarked in Sydney for a new beginning. Many established roots in Leichhardt and the surrounding suburb, creating a thriving community of Italian culture.<\/b><\/h4>\n
