Sanfrè Rice Fair

For decades, the Pro Loco has been guarding the tradition of the Patronal Feast of the Corpi Santi.

Since 2015, this event has been enriched with the Sanfrè Rice Fair, created to celebrate the excellence of local rice.

The event takes place every year at the beginning of October, in perfect coincidence with the threshing period, offering an authentic gastronomic experience that enhances the deep bond between the land and the table.
