Sagre dai Borgs

Sagre dai Borgs returns reliably to Jalmicco, in the province of Udine, once again confirming itself as one of the most traditional and long-established events in Lower Friuli. With over half a century of history behind it, this event represents an unmissable appointment for anyone wanting to discover the authentic soul of the Friuli Venezia Giulia region, where culinary tradition intertwines with conviviality and collective celebration. For five consecutive evenings, from July 16-20, 2026, the village comes alive with a rich programme celebrating local excellence. Dishes from the Friuli tradition—from the famous freshly-made potato gnocchi to grilled meats and fried squid—alternate with German beer and convivial moments in a genuine and warm atmosphere. Each evening tells a different story through food and music, keeping alive the memory of recipes passed down through generations. Live musical entertainment forms the beating heart of the event, with orchestras, local bands, and dance evenings that create a festive atmosphere engaging visitors of all ages. The village transforms into a great open-air stage where traditional Friuli music dialogues with more contemporary sounds, creating an unforgettable experience. Beyond gastronomic delights, Sagre dai Borgs offers cultural and charitable moments that reflect the community values of the territory. A carefully curated art exhibition enriches the event's cultural offering, while a substantial charity raffle underscores the spirit of community that characterises this celebration. Exhibition spaces welcome local artists and creatives, giving visibility to the talents of the Friuli Venezia Giulia region. A perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in the most authentic Friuli tradition, where gastronomy, music, art, and solidarity meet to celebrate a community's cultural identity.
