Parco 'La Barona' in Giussago sets the stage for the Festa della Zucca, a festive gathering designed to celebrate the rich flavors and cozy atmosphere of autumn. From 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, the park comes alive with the Pumpkin Village, serving up pumpkin-themed culinary delights and classic seasonal treats like roasted chestnuts and mulled wine, complete with a sunset aperitivo on Saturday. The festival lineup offers plenty for families and children, featuring creative crafts, cooking workshops, storytelling sessions, games, and live entertainment. Visitors can also enjoy outdoor adventures such as first-ride pony experiences, pedal tractor trails, and horseshoe decorating. Organized by the GIUIN - ODV association in partnership with the Municipality of Giussago and local groups, admission to the park is free, though select individual attractions require a fee and the cooking workshops require advance registration due to limited capacity.
