Sagra delle Lumache, del Coniglio e dello Spiedino (Snail, Rabbit and Skewer Festival)

In Acquaviva Picena, the charming Marche village overlooking the Adriatic, the Sagra delle Lumache, del Coniglio alla Cacciatora e dello Spiedino returns once again. This is an unmissable opportunity to immerse your palate in the most authentic and genuine cuisine of the Marche region—the kind that tells stories of generations of culinary wisdom passed down through this cherished summer tradition. Here, recipes are far more than simple dishes; they are genuine connections to the history and traditions of the territory. Local snails prepared in a rich stew according to jealously guarded recipes alternate with rabbit cacciatore, its aromas utterly irresistible. The menu also features pappardelle with snail sauce, gnocchi with ragù, olives all'ascolana, and arrosticini skewers. To satisfy all tastes, you'll also find delicious fritters, farro prepared country-style, sausage sandwiches, and tomato bruschetta. Fries, watermelon, and desserts round out the experience! A carefully curated selection of local wines—both bottled and on tap—alongside artisanal local beers transform the evening into a true gastronomic journey. Above all, the Sagra is a culinary experience: keeping local cuisine alive and welcoming guests like family. In fact, at Acquaviva's sagra, there are no queues, not even at checkout, thanks to complete table service.
