The National Exhibition of Toma di Lanzo and Alpine Cheeses returns to Usseglio, one of the most eagerly awaited events on Piedmont's gastronomic calendar. Now in its 30th edition, this event celebrates mountain cheese excellence and the rich cultural heritage of the Lanzo valley, transforming the Fairgrounds into a showcase where tradition and quality reach their fullest expression. Held over two weekends (July 10-12 and 18-19, 2026), the festival offers a rich and varied program designed for all visitors. During the event, you can enjoy nature walks through the Lanzo valley, educational workshops on traditional cheese-making techniques, live cooking demonstrations with local chefs, and expert-guided tastings led by sommeliers and master cheesemakers. Lovers of rural culture can admire exhibitions of farm animals, while evening musical and cultural performances create an authentically Alpine atmosphere. The heart of the festival remains the Trade Exhibition, this year featuring over 50 exhibitors showcasing Toma di Lanzo DOP, alpine cheeses, artisanal butters, and the finest local products. Meet producers directly, discover the stories behind their mountain dairies, and taste cheeses at various stages of maturation. This is an unmissable opportunity to immerse yourself in the history and beauty of the Piedmont mountains, taking home the authentic flavors of the Aosta Valley and Piedmont traditions.
