Sagra della focaccia

The Sagra della Focaccia of Cassano delle Murge is an unmissable opportunity to rediscover the authentic flavours of Puglian tradition. In this charming village nestled among olive groves and dry stone walls, focaccia reigns supreme: a simple yet extraordinary bread, prepared according to recipes passed down through generations, with the aroma of wood-fired ovens and genuine craftsmanship. During the festival, you can savour all the local variations, from the classic soft version with cherry tomatoes and olives, to those enriched with onion, rosemary, oregano and seasonal ingredients that add character to every bite. But the Sagra della Focaccia is more than just a culinary celebration: it's an experience of conviviality that embraces the entire community and visitors alike. Around the food stalls, entertainment for children, live music and traditional dances create a genuine and festive atmosphere, where food becomes the perfect reason to gather together. It is in these moments that Puglia reveals its most authentic face: one of outdoor snacks, shared laughter and bonds renewed around a table. A day in Cassano delle Murge, between focaccia and tradition, is a sensory journey into the heart of regional gastronomy, where every bite tells stories of the land, manual labour and love for good food. Do not miss this festival that tastes of home and roots.
