Sagra dell'oca

Bettona, one of Umbria's most enchanting villages, prepares to welcome the Sagra dell'Oca, an event celebrating one of the region's most deeply rooted gastronomic traditions. From July 25 to August 3, 2026, the village transforms into a grand open-air feast where goose, the queen of peasant tables, is offered in all its most appetizing preparations: crispy roasts, savory stews, oven-baked dishes with potatoes and rich sauces that dress artisanal tagliatelle and pappardelle.

The festival is more than just a celebration of food—it's a complete immersion in Umbrian culture. Evenings come alive with live music resonating through the ancient village streets, while family-friendly shows and historical processions evoke local traditions. Square games keep the festive and engaging atmosphere vibrant, transforming your visit into a sensory experience.

Here, the aroma of dishes prepared according to recipes passed down through generations literally guides visitors through the discovery of a unique gastronomic heritage. Each dish tells the slow rhythm of the Umbrian countryside, the deep connection with the land, and the seasons. A journey through authentic flavors where tradition and conviviality meet in the evocative setting of one of Italy's most beautiful villages.
