Hello everyone!

I was wondering if anyone knew of any Sagra/Sagre that are scheduled during the last week of June in or near the Certaldo area. I have never been to one before and would love to go to one while I am there!

Thanks!

When we were in Italy last May we were able to experience a sagra and a local festival just based on seeing posters in the area. But to get you started, check this website, which you can link to from the main Italy Slow Travel page.

Hi,

Here's another link for you:

I don't know if the information is totally accurate; I just found it surfin' around for sagre one day.

Try here:

Find the region and locale you want. Then use the name of the event, if you don't read Italian, in a Google search to see if you can find a hit on an English language promotion for the sagra or sagre you have an interest in. It works more than 75% of the time.

Good luck, and great eating!

I recently did a blog entry on a sagra I attended in Le Marche a few weeks ago. Pictures forthcoming. See:
