Ancient Fair of Cavalcaselle

The millennial fair that celebrates tradition, folklore and local flavors. Enjoy authentic local products, explore the historic market, admire agricultural machinery, and experience ancient traditions.

Info
The origins of the fair date back to the year 1000, when shepherds passing through the area set up camps while women prepared traditional dishes.
Today, the event recreates the same atmosphere with lots of activities: food and wine stalls featuring local products, a market of traditional goods, agricultural machinery displays, historical encampments, entertainment for children, races, and traditional games.
Religious and cultural moments are also part of the program, celebrating the history and traditions of the region.
