Fiera di San Felice (San Felice Fair)

The Fiera di San Felice in Monteleone di Spoleto is a captivating journey into Umbria's rural past, a celebration of livestock and agricultural traditions dating back to the 1600s. Every year, from July 17-19, the village transforms into a vibrant market fair where ancient customs and modernity coexist: from transhumance practices to equestrian shows, from local products to cultural initiatives that keep rural heritage alive. Three days of discovery and authentic flavors, showcasing the Italian heavy-draft agricultural horse, Umbrian grains, and regional produce. The event offers a complete experience: guided excursions, technical workshops, sports activities, and entertainment for children, all culminating in the spectacular evening equestrian show ‹Una sera di mezza estate› (A Midsummer Evening). Gastronomic excellence is paramount, featuring new Slow Food Presidia from Umbria such as Ricotta Salata della Valnerina and Buckwheat, offered in tastings at local restaurants. An authentic celebration of Umbrian rural roots, where tradition, culture, and genuine flavors come together.
