Isola del Giglio, a Tuscan island recognized as an UN Best Tourism Village, is emphasizing its identity through local traditions and sustainable tourism. Efforts to maintain long-term sustainability include managing seasonal tourism and transportation costs while promoting cultural events such as the Festa dell'Uva e delle Cantine in late September.

Building on this focus on community and nature, the island will host the second edition of the Giglio Island Running on October 10–11, 2026. Organized by ASD Elba Runners, the event uses Giglio Campese as a central hub to combine competitive racing with family-oriented activities designed to help visitors explore the island’s natural landscape.
