The National Mushroom Exhibition of Ceva represents one of the most anticipated events for mycology and Piedmont gastronomy enthusiasts. This celebration, held in the heart of the Langhe region, transforms this small town into a must-visit destination for discovering the outstanding fungal varieties that grow naturally in the surrounding forests. From the most common species to the most sought-after mushrooms, the exhibition offers a unique opportunity to deepen your knowledge of these extraordinary fruits of the earth. Beyond the mycological displays dedicated to mushroom identification and classification, the event features a complete culinary experience through its gastronomic stands. Here you can savour traditional Piedmont dishes where mushrooms take centre stage: tajarin with porcini mushrooms, aromatic risottos, and delicate preparations that enhance the natural flavour of each variety, all paired with carefully selected local wines. The National Mushroom Exhibition is not merely an enogastronomic event, but a genuine moment of cultural education. The educational spaces allow visitors to understand the inseparable bond between the Piedmont forest, traditional harvesting practices, and local cuisine, transforming a simple visit into a formative experience that celebrates the territory's biodiversity and sustainability.
