About Antica Fiera di Valeggio
A centenary fair on the Mincio
The Antica Fiera di Valeggio sul Mincio is one of the longest-running events in the Verona area: now in its 104th edition, it is the great traditional festival of Valeggio sul Mincio, in the province of Verona, organized by the Pro Loco (local tourism board) together with the municipal administration.
Agriculture, crafts, and taste
The fair combines its rural roots with a wide offering: exhibitions of agriculture, crafts, industry, and trade are alongside food and wine stands, the Bread Festival, and stands from twinned regions. The historic center fills with artistic and creative markets, while the funfair and dance floors liven up the evenings.
Music and fireworks over the castle
The program includes live concerts, dance performances, exhibitions, and events throughout the streets and squares. The most anticipated moment is the fireworks display that on Monday evening frames the towers of the Scaliger Castle, marking the end of three days of festivities that attract visitors from all over the Garda area.
