Sagre dal Frico

In the heart of the Friuli plain, the charming hamlet of Carpacco transforms into an unmissable opportunity to discover and savor frico, one of the most representative dishes of the region's cuisine. This preparation made from Montasio cheese and potatoes, served in its crispier, golden variants or in softer, spreadable versions, embodies the gastronomic soul of a tradition deeply rooted in the history of Friuli-Venezia Giulia. The Frico Festival, which animates the Dignano area for nine intense days, is not merely an occasion to taste authentic dishes, but a genuine community event where gastronomy intertwines with entertainment and local traditions. Beyond the festival's star attraction, the sagra offers a rich selection of Friuli specialties: from grilled meats to crust-baked prosciutto, from pizza to offerings from the wine bar and brewery area, where you can discover local wines and craft beers paired with cheeses and other regional delicacies. Each dish tells a story of authentic flavors and cuisine rooted in the region's farming traditions. Entertainment is not overlooked: ballroom dancing nights, musical shows, live concerts, and the popular Vespa Rally create a festive and engaging atmosphere. Hobbyist markets and children's entertainment complete the offering, making the Frico Festival a celebration accessible to all generations and a perfect opportunity to experience the Friuli community in all its authenticity.
