Festa del fico bianco

The White Fig Festival of Cilento is one of the most anticipated events of the Campania summer, celebrating with pride one of Italy's most important producers. In the municipality of Giungano, from August 20-24, 2026, the absolute star is the White Fig DOP, a fruit symbolizing an extraordinary territory that alone supplies 80% of the region's harvest. A genuine celebration dedicated to this gift of nature, where Cilento's gastronomic tradition reaches its fullest expression in creative and irresistible dishes. Throughout the event, white figs are presented in every possible way: from classic pairings with prosciutto and bruschetta, to modern interpretations like refreshing sorbets, gourmet pizzas, Cilento cavatelli pasta, and innovative cocktails. Each dish tells a story of authentic flavors and conscious cuisine, capable of transforming a simple fruit into an unforgettable gastronomic experience. But the White Fig Festival is more than just food: it is a journey into the soul of Cilento. Evenings come alive with curated musical performances and traditional street games that revive local folk customs. An event that combines culinary discovery with the valorization of cultural heritage, making every moment an authentic celebration of the Cilento community.
