Festa di Primavera

The Festa di Primavera returns to Casteltodino, one of the most eagerly awaited events of the year in this small hamlet of Montecastrilli, in the province of Terni, Umbria. Now in its 30th edition, this celebration is ready to welcome spring with an authentic array of flavors and entertainment for the whole family. From May 8 to 17, the food stalls will fire up their kitchens to serve the most characteristic specialties of local Umbrian cuisine.

The undisputed star of the festival is goose meat, expertly prepared by volunteers following the traditional recipes of the region. A dish that tells the story and traditions of this community, perfect to savor in good company. Alongside the goose, you cannot miss the famous pizza al testo—the typical Umbrian flatbread filled with prosciutto and other local delicacies that will delight even the most discerning palates. Completing the gastronomic offerings are traditional Umbrian specialties, local pastries, and regional wines.

But the Festa di Primavera is more than just food and wine: the event features live music with performances by local musicians, traditional dances, educational workshops for children, games, and entertainment that create an atmosphere of joy and togetherness. A perfect opportunity to discover the authentic charm of rural Umbria and taste the genuine flavors of a culinary tradition still very much alive. The event is organized by the Pro loco of Casteltodino and the Municipality of Montecastrilli.

Hours: Food stalls are open from 12:00 to 15:00 (lunch) and from 19:00 to 23:00 (dinner). Entrance is free; dishes and beverages are charged according to the displayed price list. For information: Pro loco Casteltodino - Tel. 075 XXXXXX or [email protected].
