THEautunno is the season par excellence in which the festivals of chestnuts and in our region they always are dozens of appointments of this type to which we can participate to taste the traditional dishes of our land prepared with these tasty fruits.
In Campania, this year too many villages have worked hard to organize gastronomic appointments respectable, festivals that involve the entire historic center or even just a few streets, but which always leave us with a satisfied stomach and soul.
Some of these festivals have been organized since decades, like the now very famous one of roccamonfina which this year celebrates its forty candles, but also other of these festivals are really very long-lived.
Not just chestnuts, but also music, excursions and events
In general, these festivals also offer a full program of Entertainment need institutional events, which make them even more complete. In the evening we can listen to the music of local groups, and not only, who perform in concert, during the day we can participate in excursions in nature, sometimes there are exhibitions to visit and there is no shortage of them shows, markets and show cooking.
In short, the chestnut festivals are an all-round experience.
