National Fair of the Precious White Truffle in Sant'Agata Feltria

The prestige of the truffle in Sant'Agata Feltria

The National Fair of the Precious White Truffle returns to animate the village of Sant'Agata Feltria on the Sundays of October 4, 11, 18, 25 and November 1, 2026. This annual event represents a benchmark for the enhancement of local resources, placing the white truffle, an emblem of local forest biodiversity, at the center of attention.

An experience between gastronomy and tradition

The core of the event is the exhibition market, where expert truffle hunters and local producers offer the fresh product, characterized by intense aromas and distinctive organoleptic qualities. The food and wine journey is completed by the wine tour, an exhibition that allows visitors to deepen their knowledge of the local wineries, pairing regional labels with truffle-based dishes prepared according to traditional local recipes.

A moment of particular cultural value is the truffle dog competition, a practical demonstration that illustrates the complexity and dedication required to search for the tuber. This activity is not only a moment of entertainment, but testifies to the deep bond between humans, dogs, and the forest ecosystem, preserving search techniques passed down from generation to generation.

The historical context of the village

Attending the fair offers the opportunity to rediscover the monumental heritage of Sant'Agata Feltria. The village preserves significant architectural landmarks, among which the Angelo Mariani Theater stands out, an eighteenth-century gem built entirely of wood. The Rocca Fregoso, an imposing fortress that dominates the town, and the Convent of San Girolamo are essential stops on a route that weaves gastronomic narrative with the history of the Italian rural landscape.
