Super Castagnata

In the final weeks of October, the medieval village of Ripatransone transforms into an oasis of autumn flavors with the Super Castagnata, an event celebrating one of the noblest fruits of the Marche tradition. Through the characteristic narrow streets of the town, guests can breathe in the genuine atmosphere of a community festival where chestnuts reign supreme: from steaming roasted chestnuts to traditional sweets, from honey to new wines, every taste tells the story of the Piceno hills and their generosity. But the Super Castagnata is not just about tasting—it's an experience that engages all the senses. Folk groups, traveling musicians, and street artists animate the squares and alleyways, creating a festive and convivial atmosphere. Visitors will also find more substantial offerings, from steaming polenta to local cured meats, artisanal cheeses to rustic pasta dishes that warm the soul. A market of autumn products completes the offering, allowing you to take home the territory's finest specialties. Perfect for families, couples, and anyone wishing to rediscover the authentic flavors of the Ascoli Piceno province, the Super Castagnata is a celebration of Marche's food and wine culture where tradition and community meet in a single festival.
