Ce l'ho con l'olio (New Olive Oil Festival)

From November 14 to 22, 2026, Calenzano hosts the 35th edition of 'Ce l'ho con l'Olio', the traditional festival celebrating dishes prepared with freshly pressed extra virgin olive oil. Held at the St.Art Spazio Eventi, this event showcases authentic Tuscan cuisine and the premium olive oil harvested from the surrounding hills, rooted in ancient farming traditions just outside the medieval village. The menu is crafted to highlight fresh local olive oil through traditional rustic peasant dishes: fettunta (garlic-rubbed toasted bread with olive oil), pinzimonio (fresh raw vegetables with olive oil dip), bread soup, leek soup, fagioli all'uccelletto (stewed beans with tomatoes and sage), and boiled beans, alongside other regional Tuscan specialties. The festival is organized by the charity association Assieme ODV, with the support of the Municipality and ATC Calenzano. The indoor dining hall opens for dinner and requires advance reservations.
