Antichi sapori

Antichi Sapori di Cessapalombo is an unmissable opportunity to immerse yourself in the culinary and cultural traditions of the Marche region. From October 5-12, 2026, the village of Cessapalombo transforms into a stage where the past comes alive through the authentic flavors of traditional Marchigian countryside cuisine. Visitors can taste timeless specialties such as Cargiù (Marchigian ravioli filled with meat and cheese), braised pork shanks, tagliatelle with ragù, and typical grilled meats, discovering how recipes passed down through generations maintain their charm and authenticity intact. The event goes beyond simple culinary tasting, offering a multisensory experience that celebrates local craftsmanship and expertise. The typical products market and artisan workshops allow you to witness firsthand the dedication of local producers, while ‹ancient› street food adds a touch of modern conviviality to this celebration of traditions. You can savor aged cheeses, genuine cured meats, local wines, and traditional sweets prepared according to recipes dating back centuries. For a truly inclusive celebration, Cessapalombo has planned activities for the whole family: children can participate in educational workshops on artisan craftsmanship, donkey rides through Marchigian landscapes, visits to the magical Butterfly Garden, and educational farm tours. Adults will enjoy cultural events including presentations on Marchigian gastronomy, photography exhibitions dedicated to local traditions, thematic conferences, and enchanting performances by folklore groups in traditional costumes. Antichi Sapori represents a unique opportunity to rediscover the deep connection between the territory, its people, and their authentic values. An event that unites gastronomy, culture, nature, and craftsmanship in a genuine celebration of the Marche, where every moment is dedicated to the pleasure of being together and recognizing the work of those who preserve these precious traditions.
