Bologna and Emilia-Romagna offer seasonal culinary and cultural experiences

Bologna and the surrounding Emilia-Romagna region offer a distinct seasonal experience during the autumn months, characterized by culinary festivals, art exhibitions, and natural landscapes.

The period from October to mid-November is marked by 'sagre', local festivals centered around seasonal products. A notable event is 'Tartufesta', a cycle of celebrations dedicated to the white truffle from Colli Bolognesi. These events take place in various locations within the Bolognese hills and the Apennines, including Lizzano in Belvedere, Monzuno, Pianoro, San Benedetto Val di Sambro, Sasso Marconi, Monghidoro, and Grizzana Morandi. Savigno also hosts festivities from late October through mid-November.
