The Sagra del Pesce di Bassa returns for its 52nd edition with a tradition rooted in the 1970s, when the local tamburello team decided to celebrate fish, the undisputed star of Tuscany's fishing heritage. Every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from June 25 to July 12, the Tamburello Sports Field transforms into a gastronomic arena where residents of Cerreto Guidi gather around steaming tables of seafood specialties. The menu is a hymn to fresh fish: from seafood appetizers to spaghetti allo scoglio (pasta with clams), from crab penne to crispy fried shrimp and squid, all offered for just 8 euros. Completing the experience is local white wine produced in the hills of the Empolese region, which enhances every dish with its freshness and minerality. A celebration that brings the entire community together in a collective embrace around food and conviviality. But the Sagra is not just about cuisine: after satisfying your appetite, the dance floor welcomes everyone to dance to the rhythm of live music and DJ sets, transforming the evening into an endless celebration. Each weekend the program features local artists and special guests animating summer nights with the best sounds, from classic Italian songs to contemporary rhythms. Free entry, with a 2026 innovation offering online purchases to skip cashier lines.
