Italy
Best Time to Visit Modugno
Modugno sits in inland Puglia, so summers bake and winters can feel damp. The best times to visit are May–June and September–October, when temperatures are pleasant and the town isn't overrun.
✦ Go in May or September for the best balance of decent weather, local atmosphere and reasonable prices.
✅ Best months
May, June and September: warm but not scorching, with clear skies and few tourists. Local life hums without the August crush.
🔥 Peak season
August: scorching heat (often 35°C+), full of Italian holidaymakers. Hotel rates double. The Ferragosto festa on 15 August packs the streets.
💷 Shoulder (best value)
May and September: temperatures sit in the low-to-mid 20s, hotel prices drop 20–30% versus August. Still plenty of sunlight and open restaurants.
🌙 Quietest & cheapest
November to February: quietest and cheapest, but many trattorie close for weeks over Christmas. Expect rain and grey skies; some sights reduce hours.

🧳 What to pack
Pack a light jacket or jumper even in summer: evenings drop sharply, and many churches and restaurants keep air-con low.
