Description: every year, as summer draws to a close, Sant’Angelo di Gatteo comes alive with the unique atmosphere of the Barrocci Festival: eleven days of celebration where Romagna tradition intertwines with the pleasure of good food, music, and the pleasure of being together.
The festival features concerts, lively comedy shows, art exhibitions, children’s entertainment, and the splendor of fireworks.
The most anticipated moment of the event is the historic Palio dei Barrocci race, a thrilling and exciting challenge that always draws large participation and enthusiastic cheering.
The experience continues at the table: every evening, the large restaurant offers iconic dishes of Romagna cuisine, made with fresh and carefully selected ingredients to offer a true feast for the palate. For those who wish to enjoy these delicacies in the comfort of their own home, a convenient takeout service is also available.
