Local food festivals in Italian municipalities

Overview

In August 2026, several Italian municipalities organized traditional food festivals to promote local culinary heritage and community ties.

Sant’Angelo a Cupolo scheduled its 50th Sagra del Cecatiello pasta-making festival for August 14, featuring a glass-mosaic artwork and a dedication to General Renato Russo. Simultaneously, Fossato di Vico prepared for its 11th Sagra del Cinghiale, an event focused on wild boar cuisine.

Continuing the regional focus on gastronomy, Pietramontecorvino scheduled the third edition of its ‘Sagra del Cinghiale – Selvaticamente Buono’ for August 12. This event, organized by the C.P.A. association, aimed to connect younger generations with hunting culture through a menu featuring wild boar dishes and local Monti Dauni specialties.
