The Mostra della Ciliegia di Maser De.Co. is an unmissable event for lovers of quality fruit and Venetian tradition. Hosted in the enchanting Villa Barbaro, a 16th-century masterpiece of Palladian architecture designed by Andrea Palladio, this exhibition has been renewed annually since 1991 with the aim of promoting the local cherry production, a fruit symbolizing spring and the fertility of the Venetian territories. This showcase offers a unique opportunity to discover the native cherry varieties cultivated in the Maser area: from the prized Ferrovia to the sweet Giorgia, from Burlat to Durone, the absolute stars of exclusive tastings. You'll meet local producers directly, sample the region's finest offerings, and purchase freshly picked fruit. The event perfectly combines the historical charm of the villa with the promotion of contemporary gastronomic resources, creating an atmosphere where culture, history, and flavors meet in perfect harmony. Perfect for families, food and wine enthusiasts, and those curious about Venetian traditions, the May showcase also features educational workshops, cooking demonstrations with cherry-based dishes, and guided tours of the villa. This well-established event attracts thousands of visitors annually and is recognized as a quality gastronomy landmark among Venetian food festivals.
