DeguScanno is the unmissable autumn event for lovers of authentic cuisine and enchanting landscapes. Winding through the cobblestone streets of Scanno, one of Italy's most captivating villages, the festival transforms the heart of the Abruzzo National Park into a stage where the traditional flavors of the Abruzzo hinterland take center stage. Here, among tasting booths and open wineries, the region's food and wine heritage is celebrated in all its authenticity. Local wines – from the renowned Montepulciano d'Abruzzo to the delicate Cerasuolo – pair beautifully with a curated selection of local treasures: genuine cured meats, artisanal cheeses, zero-kilometer legumes, fragrant honeys, and sweets prepared using time-honored recipes. Showcase cooking events and tasting workshops allow visitors to explore traditional techniques and discover the secrets of a cuisine rooted in collective memory. But DeguScanno is far more than a simple food festival: it is a total immersion in Abruzzo's culture. Guided tours through the village, meetings with producers and artisans, live music, and photographic exhibitions complete an experience that combines gastronomic pleasure with the beauty of the autumn landscape. A rare opportunity to experience authentic Abruzzo, where taste, tradition, and magic intertwine.
