The Sagra degli Antichi Sapori returns to Pignataro Maggiore, an event that for over twenty years has been the beating heart of Agro Caleno traditions. From July 2-6, 2026, the Partignano district will transform into a magical space where authentic flavors of peasant cuisine meet solidarity and community spirit. Organized by the Insieme per l'Unità dei Popoli APS Association, this 23rd edition promises five unforgettable evenings celebrating genuine taste, conviviality, and family fun. At the gastronomic stands, you can savor the most representative dishes of local tradition, prepared according to recipes passed down through generations. From the famous pettole and beans to traditional soffritto, from guanti—the typical hand-made sweet created by local housewives—to pizza figliata with walnuts and honey, each dish tells stories of territory and memory. There are no shortage of savory and sweet specialties celebrating the authentic cuisine of Agro Caleno. But the Sagra is more than just food: live music will resound throughout the evenings, from Neapolitan sounds to the thrilling rhythms of bands spanning decades of Italian music. Square dances will animate the crowd, creating a festive and genuine atmosphere, while children's activities guarantee fun for the little ones. An event where tradition, taste, and joy meet to celebrate the cultural identity of the region. **Practical Information:** The event takes place at Piazza Alcide De Gasperi in the Partignano district.
