The eighth annual Festa del Salame is scheduled to take place in the historic center of Cremona from October 9 to 11, 2026. Organized by SGP Grandi Eventi, the festival focuses on local charcuterie traditions through both classic tastings and modern culinary innovations.

Program highlights include the debut of the ‘CiokoBurger’, which combines salami, dark chocolate, and mustard, as well as the introduction of beer-flavored and plant-based salami alternatives. The event will also feature the ‘Salami Stellati’ showcase for award-winning specialties and educational workshops such as ‘A Scuola di Salame’. Additionally, the festival aims to emphasize regional identity via the ‘Strada del Gusto Cremonese’ and a dedicated ‘Villaggio della Mostarda’ to highlight local mustard production.
