Visitors to Umbria throughout the year can enjoy countless fairs and festivals throughout the region:
just about every village or city runs some kind of festival devoted to its particular produce during the course of the year.
These include:
- the Pietrafitta wild asparagus festival in April,
- Orvieto con Gusto in October, with theme nights, markets and tasting sessions,
- the Valtopina national truffle market fair in November,
- the Primi d’Italia festival in Foligno devoted to pasta, rice and first courses, with discussions and workshops.
