The Truffle Fair of Castelnuovo Don Bosco returns to celebrate the excellence of Monferrato in a rich edition full of surprises and unmissable events. Nestled among the Piedmont hills, the village of the Saints transforms into a stage where food and wine culture, craftsmanship, and culture meet in a weekend dedicated to variety and discovery. A unique opportunity to savour the prized autumn gems and be guided through the authentic flavours of the territory. The programme offers a 360-degree experience that goes far beyond simple tastings: from trekking walks through hilly landscapes to scenic carriage rides, from workshops for children to cultural meetings, up to musical performances and artistic installations. Every visitor will find their own moment of interest, whether a truffle enthusiast, a lover of local craftsmanship, or simply a curious person eager to experience authentic traditions in the heart of Piedmont. Alongside the celebration of truffles, the Saint Andrew Commercial Fair further enlivens the village streets with commercial and artisanal offerings. A perfect weekend to discover local traditions, taste typical dishes, and take home memories and flavours of a genuine and warm celebration.
