When November paints the Veneto countryside gold, Mezzane di Sotto transforms into a stage where tradition and conviviality meet at the Festa dell'Olio e del Vino. For nine days, from November 22-30, 2026, this charming village opens its doors to visitors eager to discover autumn's treasures: freshly pressed new oil with its intense aroma, and wine—the undisputed star of Veneto tables. Historic mills and wineries welcome guests for authentic tastings, an experience that lets you witness firsthand the cycle of nature and the patient work of local producers. Yet this is far more than an oil and wine celebration: it's a living story of Veneto farming culture, where every detail speaks of traditions rooted deep in the territory. Food stalls showcase regional specialties, enhanced by crispy crostini and generous glasses of wine, while artisan markets display handmade creations by local craftspeople. Folk performances and musical moments throughout the festival create a festive and welcoming atmosphere. Workshops and exhibitions round out the offering, giving visitors the chance to explore the agricultural heritage and traditional techniques that define this corner of the Veneto. A celebration of food, land, and togetherness that transforms Mezzane di Sotto into the perfect destination for those seeking to experience authentic Italy.
