The village and tradition
The village of Lucignano, famous for its rare elliptical urban layout, transforms for an entire weekend into a showcase dedicated to local food and wine traditions. The 14th-century walls, which still define the profile of the town today, provide a setting of exceptional architectural value for the events that enliven the urban fabric.
A journey through flavors and crafts
The food and wine trail winds through the alleys of the historic center, where stands dedicated to seasonal products are set up. Culinary highlights include pork shank prepared according to traditional recipes and fried porcini mushrooms, dishes that celebrate the deep bond between Tuscan gastronomy and the surrounding woodland area. The event integrates the culinary offerings with a local craft market, an opportunity to observe the manual craftsmanship of typical artifacts.
Reenactment and entertainment
The atmosphere of the center is enriched by the presence of the Historical Group and the Folk Group, who parade along the main streets, reenacting the customs of the historic Porta Murata. The schedule of performances includes live music to accompany the evenings: the Klinex Band and the Ballantine Band will alternate on stage to provide a sound backdrop to the event. A space dedicated to children's entertainment is also planned, making the experience accessible to a diverse audience.
Logistical information
Access to the center of Lucignano is facilitated by dedicated signage. For those who desire a more structured participation, it is possible to attend the Red Blue Lunch, for which reservation is mandatory. Further details on stall opening hours and the musical program are available at the info-points located at the main entrances. The event represents a moment of cultural appreciation for one of the most significant villages in the Val di Chiana, combining the preservation of historical heritage and the promotion of autumn agricultural products in a single setting.
