The 46th edition of the Sagra dei Fiori di Zucca returns to Ponte Pattoli, a village in Perugia, for an unmissable summer event from July 10-19, 2026. Set in the green area along via Victor Hugo, this gastronomic festival celebrates one of Umbrian cuisine's most beloved ingredients: the delicate zucchini blossom, transformed into traditional dishes that embody the region's authentic simplicity and flavour. Every evening the tavern welcomes visitors from 7:00 PM onwards, offering a rich menu of Umbrian specialities featuring zucchini blossoms. From crispy fritters to handmade pasta dishes, from stuffed pizzas to other regional delicacies, each plate is carefully prepared to highlight the genuine taste of this unique ingredient. Spacious covered areas ensure comfort even on cooler evenings, while free parking makes visiting convenient for all guests. But the Sagra is more than just food and wine: from 9:00 PM each evening, a vibrant musical programme comes alive with orchestras, live bands, and dancing nights that transform the event into a true community celebration. Local and regional musicians will perform traditional Umbrian pieces and modern songs to entertain audiences of all ages. A children's play area with dedicated entertainment completes an offering designed for the whole family, making this festival the perfect opportunity to spend unforgettable evenings immersed in Umbrian tradition and shared enjoyment.
