Sagra del Cinghiale (Wild Boar Festival)

The Sagra del Cinghiale of Montecoronaro returns for its 43rd edition with an unmissable appointment for lovers of traditional Tuscan-Romagna Apennine cuisine. On Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 July, the hamlet of Verghereto, situated at 865 metres altitude, transforms into a gastronomic showcase where wild boar meat takes centre stage. From appetisers to polenta with ragù, through to main courses such as wild boar in salmì and grilled steaks, every dish tells the authentic flavour of this mountain land. The event is not merely a celebration of taste, but a complete festival where tradition and entertainment come together. Beyond the food areas and gastronomic stands set up in a spacious green zone with parking and camping facilities, visitors can enjoy trade fairs, sporting competitions dedicated to woodcutters and hunters, and entertainment with games and attractions for the whole family. The evenings will be enlivened by musical performances that will make the atmosphere even more festive and engaging. A perfect opportunity to discover the authentic flavours of Romagna, immersed in the nature of the Apennines, at an event that for over forty years has been a landmark for those seeking to experience authentic mountain culinary tradition.
