Italy continues its autumn season of cultural, gastronomic, and literary activities. In the Marche region, the “Agricoltura in Festa” event is scheduled for October 3 and 4 in Abbadia di Fiastra. Mushroom-themed celebrations remain prominent, including the 46th Sagra dei Funghi in Cusano Mutri, the 13th Festa del Fungo in Serra San Bruno, and the 57th Sagra del Fungo on the Sila plateau in Camigliatello. In Reggiolo, the 31st Fiera della Zucca highlights local pumpkins, while Northern Italy sees pumpkin attractions like the Villaggio delle Zucche at PuraVida Farm and the Villaggio di Nonno Andrea in Veneto. South Tyrol and Alto Adige remain premier destinations for the Törggelen tradition, grape and apple harvests, and the Keschtnriggl chestnut festival. ~~In Trentino, the Festa della Zucca~~ The Keschtnriggl festival, running from October 15 to November 8 in ~~Pergine Valsugana features exhibitions~~ Lana, Foiana, and ~~workshops, while~~ Tesimo-Prissiano, celebrates the ~~Mountain Agriculture Festival~~ chestnut as a historical food source and honors the traditional wooden tool used by farmers to peel them.

Outdoor activities are evolving with seasonal weather. In Tarvisio, the Valcanale area is promoting hiking routes through the Julian Alps, such as the Bobnia Path and the Lynx Path. In the Alps, travelers are monitoring mountain passes like Gavia and Stelvio due to potential snow and ice risks. Autumn foliage remains a major draw, with larch trees near Cortina d’Ampezzo and Lago Federa offering popular hiking opportunities. In the Lazio region, Licenza is set to host its fifth annual chestnut harvest on November 1, 2026. Coastal towns such as Zoagli in Liguria and Sperlonga in Lazio are also noted for their authentic atmosphere as summer crowds diminish. Tourism trends show high demand for horseback riding, wine tastings, and quad excursions, with Lombardy, Piedmont, and Lazio among the most booked regions.
