The Sagra del Tartufo di Dovadola is a complete immersion into the charm of the Romagna hills, where prized white truffles reign supreme as the undisputed star of the celebration. From October 19-26, 2026, Piazza Berlinguer transforms into a gastronomic stage where tradition and flavor meet in every dish. Hand-rolled tagliatelle prepared by local pasta makers, dressed with a rich truffle ragù, represent the beating heart of the event, accompanied by other delights such as the highly appreciated white lasagne, perfect for those who prefer meat-free dishes. But the festival is much more than food: the village comes alive with stalls of truffle merchants and local agricultural producers showcasing the region's finest offerings. Cheeses, honey, cured meats, and local wines create a complete food and wine experience, allowing visitors to discover and take home the authentic flavors of Romagna. Polenta, crostini, pan-fried eggs, and truffle scaloppine complete a varied and rich culinary selection. The event is designed for the whole family: while adults lose themselves in tastings and shopping, children can have fun in the dedicated play area, and street food lovers won't miss the traditional panzerotti. Evenings come alive with live music and entertainment, creating a festive atmosphere that enchants visitors of all ages. The Sagra del Tartufo di Dovadola is an unmissable opportunity to breathe in the authentic atmosphere of the territory and savor genuine Romagna cuisine.
