The Sagra del Fungo Porcino at Cascine di Buti is an unmissable event for lovers of Tuscan gastronomy and mushroom specialties. From July 25 to August 3, 2026, this festival celebrates one of the region's most prized culinary products, served in diverse and refined preparations: fried mushrooms, delicate mushroom soup, slices of Tuscan bread toasted over charcoal, sophisticated woodland sauce, and pure porcini ragù.
The culinary offerings are rich and varied, designed to satisfy even the most discerning palates. Alongside porcini mushrooms, the undisputed stars, you'll find traditional pasta, meat cooked strictly over charcoal, creamy polenta, and genuine vegetables from the Tuscan countryside, all accompanied by a carefully selected range of local DOC wines and Chianti. Fresh pastries complete each evening, served directly at your table in a convivial and authentic atmosphere.
But the Sagra at Cascine di Buti offers more than just food: as the sun sets each day, the festivities continue with traditional ballroom dancing, open to all those who wish to join live musicians. The outdoor spaces transform into a dance floor under the stars, where you'll experience authentic Tuscan tradition through engaging rhythms and guaranteed fun.
Throughout the days, guided tours of the surrounding forests where prized porcini grow are also available, as well as cooking workshops with local chefs to learn the secrets of traditional recipes, and a photo exhibition dedicated to mycology and mushroom foraging in Tuscany. There are also artisan stalls with local specialties and tastings of farm-to-table cheeses and cured meats.
